The Second Conversation
Interpretive Authority in the Bible Classroom
Ziva R. Hassenfeld

“The Second Conversation gets to the heart of teaching and learning and invites educators to join the author in a vital, field-building conversation about the meaning-making process itself—what is at stake and for whom. Serving as a model herself, Hassenfeld guides educators to become ever more intentional in shaping the communities of learning they envision.”—Allison Cook, founder and codirector of Pedagogy of Partnership at the Hadar Institute
