Listen: BLESS Part 3
So, how can we put this Christlike listening into work in our own lives? David W. Augsburger offer Ten Commandments of Listening that I'd like for us to consider this morning:
- Understand First
- Listen to THEM, not YOU
- Don't Assume Intent = Impact
- Stay Present
- Hear the Whole Message
- Avoid Wishful Hearing
- Test Meaning Together
- Listen Before Responding
- Be Open to Growth
- Honor Voices
