  • Christian Networking: Neuroscience, Scripture & Stronger Relationships

    Christian Networking: Neuroscience, Scripture & Stronger Relationships

    What can the Bible’s references to the “right hand” teach us about restoring relationships and building trust? Join the DFW Christian Business Network for lunch and a thought-provoking conversation with Josh Ulibarri. Drawing on Scripture and interpersonal neurobiology, Josh will explore how the biblical picture of the right hand connects with unity, trust, and the work of restoring what is broken. Together, we’ll look at Ecclesiastes 10:2 and Psalm 98:1 and consider how God created us to build stronger, more connected relationships. Come ready to learn, reflect, and meet other Christians in business. Since 2007, we’ve been building powerful connections among Christian business leadersacross the DFW Area.
