Video Transcript: Communication

And in some ways, it's almost like how is it possible to get very much done in an hour and a half session? Well, the Holy Spirit can utilize these things. Because if you can get someone to just really become a listener, or even start a journey, a self aware journey for developing and communication skills, that makes huge dividends. 

The interesting thing on this one is really that homework assignment, you know, we have a homework assignment, and there's different, you know, pick one or more of the following homework assignments. This is one of those weeks where if you want to make it to three go right ahead. 

Do three sessions, it you know, where you just go through me one weekend listening, what another weekend, things like nonverbal communication, there will be so much to talk about, you may even divide things by the three weeks of homework, were keeping a journal of eye contact, or your conversations with others and you know, such things as how much do you interrupt and just get conversations going about those types of things. 

Maybe there's a date that someone's going on, and then talking or a past date, homework two, and talk about, you know, how those dates went, you know, so many times, I will tell you what I've heard again, and again, again, in this more women has shared this story, but a few men have over the years. It's like this, the date started and all he did was talk about himself. Okay, I've heard that. Or here's another one. 

The date started in all he did was talk about sports, or some topic of no interest. Or I've heard this from guys you know, the day started in all she did was talk the whole time. I know of a lot of people who are single today for only one reason, their communication skills. 

Some people are just so quick to talk and solve problems and and this could easily be nearly three weeks this could be like six weeks or have your client take the people's matchmaking ministry class, free of charge at Christian Leaders Institute or the influence smart talk class.

You know, I, I've heard so many times like the date happens and the person is trying to sell the car they drive or the clothes they wear, all of those things are not going to bring about lasting matches ordinarily. So in this week, without making this even too long for me talking too much, go through the liturgy, and decide whether or not based upon who your client is. 

If this warrants more sessions one of the things that good listening skills do and good communication skills and good people smart skills do is these are skills that could last not just at the courtship time, but can be so beneficial in the marriage if a match actually occurs.
