Good parenting depends on good communication. The problem is, we parents tend to over-talk. Not only is this ineffective, it discourages children from sharing what's on their hearts. In this immensely practical book, communications expert Becky Harling shares the best listening practices to transform your family's relationships and set your children up for success, including how to * help them express their feelings in healthy ways * listen to affirm their strengths * model how to navigate conflict with grace * listen to God, knowing that he "bends down to listen" to us (Psalm 116:2 nlt) Whether your son or daughter is in preschool, grade school, or high school, intentional listening will help them feel heard, valued, and empowered to find their unique voice. The practices you put into place now will set a foundation for strong relationships into adulthood.
How Listening Well Builds Stronger Communication and Deeper Connections No relationship is perfect--but it can be better. The secret to stronger relationships isn't to become more charming or funny or to solve the world's problems or to just try harder. All you have to do is listen. It's that simple. Yet our noisy culture hasn't equipped us to do this. With warmth and a touch of humor, personal coach and expert communicator Becky Harling shares simple, practical listening tools that will help you become a person others are drawn to and want to spend time with, as well as how to: * be fully present * offer understanding instead of advice * ask great questions * create a sense of safety and trust * manage your body language * and more! When you learn to listen well, your marriage will grow stronger, your parenting will flourish, your friendships will thrive, and your influence at work will increase. You will be amazed at how one simple act can transform the hearts of others--as well as your own.
Why do so many leaders prioritize their speaking skills when communication studies show we spend more time listening than reading, writing, or speaking? The reality is, most people are below-average listeners, and it's keeping them and their team members from reaching their potential. In Listen Well, Lead Better, Steve and Becky Harling share 10 practices that will help you be a more effective listener and leader. Learn how to ask better questions, make people feel heard and valued, and create an open and positive culture. Strong listeners also enjoy greater credibility, navigate conflicts better, and foster more engaged teams. Above all, the lessons here will help you hear from God more clearly and gain his wisdom on all matters in life. Becoming a better listener will transform how you lead and relate to everyone.
Discover the Power of Praising God When Becky Harling was diagnosed
with cancer over ten years ago, she begged God for healing. A
friend of hers had another idea. She challenged Becky to spend
twenty minutes a day in praise. Becky thought, "What if I'm not
feeling thankful? "But as she intentionally praised God, she began
to experience new joy--and her relationship with God has never been
the same. Now, in "The Thirty-Day Praise Challenge, "Becky guides
you in praising God for twenty minutes every day for one month.
Arranged topically, the book includes music selections to enhance
your praise journey and creative ideas for continuing the habit of
praise. As Becky writes, "If you take this challenge, your faith
will grow more than you dreamed possible. You will experience more
joy, less insecurity, more courage, less anxiety. Thirty days of
praising God. Are you ready?"
