This is a skills building curriculum that will improve connection with ourselves & others to help manage conflict. We are emotional, intuitive beings when we tune in. Let's not fear the intensity of emotions, learning to regulate them. In this course you will learn to navigate challenging situations, successfully solving problems, and resolving conflict with others. Specifically we will focus on the following techniques:
* Keep focus on what is being said verbally & non-verbally. When there is incongruence in the two, look to the non-verbal communication for keys to what the person is really saying.
* Let it go if you cannot control it, doing what you can with what is within your control.
* Listen for the other person's perspective & feelings, validating them even if you do not understand what they are experiencing.
* Avoid giving advice, instead asking open ended questions.
* Ask for clarification when something offends you, listening for insight.
* Enhancing Active Listening Skills with Artificial Intelligence
We introduce a proactive training tool as a resource to begin utilizing with your teams, The Appreciative Inquiry. This will build skills and train your people to utilize healthy communication strategies in crisis, to solve problems and move through conflict successfully.
Rise to become an expert communicator that people naturally want to follow and learn from. This is your blueprint for success with communication.
*Lectures are Slide Deck presentations with voiceover lecture*

In real-life events, coping with challenges often requires a strong support system. This system consists of people who genuinely listen and stand by you during difficult times. Family, friends, and colleagues can be crucial components, offering both emotional and practical support.
To build a culture of love, pastors can draw inspiration from studies like the "Love at Work" research by Sigal Barsade. Implementing this in a church involves fostering an environment where members genuinely care for one another, creating a sense of belonging and support.

Living a holy life, as advocated by Paul in his teachings throughout the scriptures, is a profound and transformative journey for believers. The apostle Paul, in various letters to early Christian communities, emphasizes the significance of holy living as an integral aspect of the Christian faith. This essay explores Paul's teachings on holy living and delves into the pastoral call for goal setting to promote a holy life within the congregation.
Ephesians 4:22-24 from the New Living Translation (NLT):
"throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception. Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes. Put on your new nature, created to be like God—truly righteous and holy."
Paul's letters, such as those to the Corinthians, Ephesians, and Colossians, provide valuable insights into the principles of holy living. He often underscores the importance of personal righteousness, ethical conduct, and spiritual discipline. For instance, in Ephesians 4:22-24, Paul urges believers to "put off the old self" and to be renewed in the spirit of their minds, putting on the new self created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.
