Relationships Pt. 2: Slay the Dragon of Wrong Assumptions

✅ FREE PREVIEW: Download and Watch Session One of the Emotionally Healthy Relationships Course --- https://www.emotionallyhealthy.org/preview Much of the pain we experience in relationships is the fruit of wrong assumptions. Assumptions are like a dragon that seeks to destroy our well-being. ·      People quit their jobs over wrong assumptions ·      Churches split over wrong assumptions ·      Couples divorce over wrong assumptions ·      Families stop talking to one another over wrong assumptions. When we make assumptions about others without checking them out, it’s easy to start telling ourselves stories about them in our heads that are not true. We are bearing false witness in our own thoughts, resulting in damaged relationships.  The principle is simple: NEVER assume you know what a person is thinking or feeling.      In part two of this series, Geri Scazzero is joined by her husband Pete, to explore the 8 essential relationship skills everyone must adopt in order to cultivate emotionally healthy relationships. This skill is called "STOP MIND READING", and once you learn this, it could very well save your life. ---------------- ✅ How Emotionally Healthy Are You?: Take a Free Assessment to Discover if You Are an Emotional Infant, Adolescent, Teenager, or Adult --- https://www.emotionallyhealthy.org/mature

Quit Lying - Chapter 2

Lying is so much a part of our world.  It is so deeply ingrained that we rarely notice it. Every culture and every family has their own unique way of spinning half-truths, withholding facts, and avoiding awkward moments. We lie with our words, smiles and our body language. We think nothing of it because "everyone does it".  We shouldn't be surprised that lying is also pervasive in the Christian community.
