Join Dr. Chris and Alisa Grace on February 5, 2026 as they speak at the CIFT Pastors’ Forum, hosted by Trinity United Presbyterian Church in Santa Ana, CA. This year’s forum, Emotionally Intelligent Relationships, is designed to equip pastors and ministry leaders with practical tools for navigating conflict and strengthening the relationships they steward every day.

Chris and Alisa will help leaders reframe conflict not as a burden, but as an opportunity to build trust, deepen connection, and create healthier church and staff cultures. Through their biblically grounded and research-backed approach, attendees will learn how to:

• Enter difficult conversations with greater confidence and peace

• Identify the hidden emotional dynamics fueling tension

• Navigate disagreements in ways that leave people feeling heard and valued

• Transform conflict into meaningful moments of growth for their church, staff, and families

With more than 35 years of experience teaching, counseling, and writing about Christ-centered relationships, Chris and Alisa bring wisdom, humor, and practical insight to ministry leaders seeking relational and emotional health.

We’re honored to have them partner with CIFT for this impactful event and invite pastors, staff, and ministry teams to join us for a morning of encouragement, learning, and renewed vision for relational leadership.
