March 9 All Ages Sunday
Generous Listening
Many times, we struggle to connect with others. We might be aware of people around us going through something, and we have no idea what we could say to help them, so we shy away. But, being there for someone doesn’t require you to say anything profound! Today we will practice some simple listening techniques that will help you have better, deeper conversations with the people in your life. Generous listening goes beyond hearing words - it is listening with both the heart and mind, with the intention to embrace openness, courage, curiosity and responsiveness. Come explore how communication builds community.
MUSIC: Marina
