There was a 5 step process I talked about in listening:
1. Change Your Shoes
2. Use Your Eyes
3. Reflect the Feelings
4. Rethink Your Position
5. Take Your Turn
Here are the scriptures I referenced:
James 1:19-20 (NIV) My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, for man's anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires.
Proverbs 11:12 (NIV) A man who lacks judgment derides his neighbor, but a man of understanding holds his tongue.
Prov. 10:19 When words are many, sin is not absent, but he who holds his tongue is wise.
James 1:19-20 (NIV) My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, for man's anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires.
Proverbs 11:12 (NIV) A man who lacks judgment derides his neighbor, but a man of understanding holds his tongue.
Prov. 10:19 When words are many, sin is not absent, but he who holds his tongue is wise.
I also quoted Carl Rogers: “to be with another in this way, means that for the time being you lay aside your own views and values in order to enter anothers’ world without prejudice.”

thank you for last sunday's service. i enjoyed it. it seems each sunday there is a message written just for me.
Thanks for sharing this followup!
Regarding Sunday, in relation to Steven Covey...you mentioned you read his book yearly as part of your personal development plan. That intrigued me. Can you post something detailing about what a personal development plan involves, or guide us to some resources about this? How do you create that, and carve out time for it?
GREAT idea Connie! I was thinking the same thing!
