Balance Boundary Training is a ministry of Revs Amy and Bill Spangler-Dunning. This is a new take and approach to boundary training for clergy and laity. At the core of the training/experience is the belief that boundary violations occur in direct relationship to
our life being out of balance. As human beings, we constantly adjust to keep our life going and “balanced.” The ways in which we make these adjustments can either be healthy or not so healthy. This boundary training seeks to provide tools and skills to help everyone make solid healthy choices to keep our lives in balance. It is hoped that this proactive approach will reduce the need or frequency of unhealthy and boundary behaviors. We accomplish this through a mixture of presentations and interactive activities. This experience is more spiritual retreat than simply a training lecture. We hope that this new approach will enrich the God-Created wholeness of who people all while improving the overall safety and health of clergy and laity throughout the church.
