* Three steps to help you communicate better:

* 1) Be quick to hear - your attitude should be that of understanding, not winning.

* Conflict gives us a chance to better understand others.

* This is also saying, “speak Lord,” and then just listening.

* 2) Be slow to speak - think before you speak.

* Put a bridle on your tongue.

* When you speak it should be to speak LIFE.

* 3) Slow to anger - anger is an emotion with a purpose.

* The purpose of anger is to see justice done.

* Justice is God’s department, not ours.

* LEARN method - listen, empathize, ask questions, take responsibility, never undervalue.
