Learning How to Do Life Well
Tim and Trudi discuss the lesson from Sunday.
Would you like to join the conversation? Send us your questions or comments.
Trudi talks about obstacles and errors which prevent us from listening well and prevent success in our difficult conversations.
The difficulty in many difficult conversations is increased when we do not address what is really going on in the conversation. Tim and Trudi look at how we can make our conversations, and our relationships, better.
In addition to the wisdom of Scripture, this series draws from the books, “Difficult Conversations”, [Amazon link], by Douglas Stone, and “How to Have that Difficult Conversation” [Amazon link] by Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend.

[podlove-episode-web-player publisher="2629" post_id="2629"] We discuss the giving and receiving of apologies.
Tim finishes our session from last week, as we talk about how, when, and where to give an apology. Then Trudi turns to the other side of the equation and talks about how to receive an apology and what some of the biggest apology busters are.
This current series on apologies mostly comes from two key resources -Â The Five Languages of Apology by Gary Chapman and Jennifer Thomas, and Effective Apology by John Kador..

[podlove-episode-web-player publisher="2637" post_id="2637"] Tim uses videos from Dr. John Townsend to teach this lesson on listening. The podcast probably won’t make a whole lot of sense without also looking at Dr. Townsend’s videos.
