Over the last 2 years the world has become more DISconnected than ever before. Much of this has been out of our control but we ALWAYS control how we respond, and in this case how we resist the polarization of today’s society.
In fact, I believe connection is the is the single most important thing in life. You may call it something else (relationship, love…) but it’s essentially why we were created. God didn’t create us because he needed help. He created us because he wanted to connect/relate to us! And to that end He has gone the greatest length imaginable.
So how can you more effectively ConnEcT and communicate to those around you? See/download this summary from the book No Drama Discipline. The book focuses on how to more effectively communicate with and disciple (teach) the children in our lives, but honestly, the principles are the same for communicating with adults! I highly recommend reading/listening to the whole book because these summaries won’t do it justice. *ConnEcTed is my way of remembering how important Christ, Empathy, and Touch are when communicating.
We have found these principled to be VERY HELPFUL in our household and trust you will as well.
