Every marriage will experience conflict. We all have different likes, dislikes and opinions. However, we can choose whether or not to allow these differences to cause offense and division in our relationships. Let's discover
how we can actually benefit from conflict while avoiding arguments and
contention.

○ Purpose to resolve and not to win

○ What does the Word say about the problem

○ Do not avoid-unresolved conflicts grow

○ Stay on topic—keep the main thing, the main thing

○ We discuss—not argue (contention)

○ If I win, my spouse loses

○ Never attempt to resolve issue in the midst of anger

○ Establish boundaries for appropriate tone and verbal/body language—create a"safe zone"

○ Always remember, we are one with the goal of understanding and restoration

○ When to seek outside help, counseling, guidance

Start Date: Tuesday 9/12/23 @ 6:30 PM

Lack of or poor communication is often cited as the number one problem in marriages. We can sometimes feel as though we are not being heard or even ignored by our spouse. In order for us to share the same goals, plans and hopes, clear and effective communication is a must. While men and women generally communicate differently, we can all improve on our communication skills.

○ The goal is to not only convey information/perspective but to reach
mutual understanding

○ Your thoughts do not have to align to communicate effectively

○ Freedom to discuss anything large or small

○ Frequency—the more you communicate the greater level of mutual respect and intimacy

Start Date: Friday September 15, 2023 @ 6:30 PM

Craig & Vivian will contact C-Group Attendees with details regarding the C-Group location, prior to the start of the Group.

Leadership crosses all sectors of our lives, whether we are leading ourselves, leading a household; leading a group activity; leading a team; a community leader, a business leader or leading within an organization.

"The Leadership Challenge is about how leaders mobilize others to want to get extraordinary things done. It's about the practices leaders use to transform values into actions, visions into realities, obstacles into innovations, separateness into solidarity, and risks into rewards."

This C-Group aligns biblical principles of leadership with practical applications that aid individuals in optimizing leadership at its best.

In this Virtual Connect Group, we will explore the 5 Shared Patterns of Effective Leadership.
