The 5Rs help you understand a feeling before it shapes your words or actions. Each step makes a little more room.

  1. Recognize

    Name what happened and the feeling you notice.

  2. Realize

    What might be beneath my response, such as fear, pain, or an unmet need? What am I assuming?

  3. Release

    What unsupported assumption or need for control can I loosen?

  4. Receive

    What truth, evidence, perspective, or support would help me?

  5. Reengage

    What will I do next, and when will I do it?

Faith gives us room to hope

I understand faith as trust in what we cannot fully see or control, and the willingness to take a step toward what we believe is possible. Although we understand and practice faith differently, I see this movement toward trust and hope as a universal thread in our shared humanity. Hope for a brighter future asks us to believe that something beyond our present circumstances is possible.

My faith is rooted in God. As I seek to draw closer to Jesus and become more like Him, I want that faith to be evident in the way I love people. I believe every human being has inherent value and is on a journey shaped by experiences we may never fully understand.

We do not have to share every belief to treat one another with dignity, listen with curiosity, and offer support. Expanding Human Capacity is an invitation to grow in that understanding, remain present to one another, and find hope as we move through life together.
