Synopsis

We humans talk a lot, so you'd think we'd be good at communicating with one another. But . . . well, we're not.
And the result is hurt, misunderstandings, frustration, division, and sometimes all-out war.

Yet whether we're trying to repair a relationship, interact on social media, or understand someone whose beliefs differ from our own, there is hope! The people around us bear God's image. As we learn to treat them accordingly, our communication will become a powerful means of showing God's love to them.

Laying out eleven key principles for loving conversation, pastor Tim Shorey guides us to a memorable, scriptural approach to communication that can transform our relationships.
