In Episode 5 of LCS Talks on Faith, Sexuality, and Education, Berkley Glazer (Middle School Principal), Joel Ditson (High School Principal), and Kevin Mirchandani (K-12 Director of Instruction and Christian Foundations) explore some of the Society of Christian Schools in British Columbia (SCSBC) SOGI guidelines for “shalom Christian communities” in conversation with Darren Spyksma, SCSBC Director of Learning. 

They unpack some of the guidelines for Christian schools to create spaces of belonging, encourage unity over uniformity of beliefs, not let tough conversations lead to divisiveness, and maintain a high duty of care for all students including students wrestling through questions of identity and sexuality. 

Darren shares examples and stories from his work across Christian schools in BC that are thinking about creating spaces for dialogue and learning with their school communities. The conversation frames what it looks like for LCS to be a place of Christ’s love, hospitality, and how key scripture passages give us insight into our posture as a learning community.
