We had a really well attended gathering this morning, including appearances by both priests!
Mike came up with a great Scripture for us and we spent quite a bit of time discussing how it affected each of us, and then we went into the main topic, also presented by Mike. We discussed the importance of listening and understanding when we’re engaging with someone else - especially someone we happen to disagree with. Making sure the other person knows you really are listening and understand what they’re trying to explain places them in a position to be less defensive and more willing to listen to your own thoughts. James 1:19 sums it up perfectly: “Be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger.”
Special thanks to Cheryl Kellogg and Rosa Ruehlman for the Valentine decorations! And also to Larry Chu and Larry Church for providing food even though they couldn’t stay.
