By approaching disagreements in a more loving way and seeing the grace and good in those who hold differing viewpoints, you'll gain a deeper understanding of others, yourself, and God--from the bestselling author of Finding God's Life for My Will. Mike Donehey brings his disarming communication style to the question of how to engage in healthy, God-honoring discussions on difficult topics. Through a collection of personal stories about times when he learned the beauty of seeing outside his own perspective, together with teaching from God's Word, Mike demonstrates how we all can learn to value someone else's opinion, even if we don't think it's the right one.
Things aren't always black and white, but there can be grace in the gray--and it can be beautiful. This timely and essential book facilitates conversations that will help you:
- subjectify those who've been objectified
- empathize with those who've been vilified
- humanize those who've been deified
- shift your posture if not your position
Disagreement isn't something to run from but something to lean into. By learning to listen with love you can discern between the times to speak and the times to keep silent, and you'll discover the gift of focusing on loving the person who's arguing rather than winning the argument. Be inspired to look for the good and the grace where you might not have seen it before.
