A friend just relayed these six things on how to talk in community. He challenged to commit to doing these things for the sake of building up others. And for the sake of memory and consonance…
1. Transformation: in mind and talk, committing to the transformation of people in conversations
2. Trust: believe in other people and choosing to trust
3. Togetherness: when roots of bitterness and resentment grow, actively resist
4. Truth in love: saying a hard thing to someone appropriately, starting and ending with the gospel
5. Transparency: giving appropriate authentic information to a few
6. Teachability: listening and learning. Listen in a way where you’re not compiling your response while they are speaking
These things are good to think on and implement.
