Spotlight on Grace

Host Ber Bolton and Pastor Tonya Marks share ideas about things to say and not say when a friend is going through a hard time, crisis, or grief. This conversation originated from a small group leaders' meeting where Nina Boshers shared about noticing group members, asking open-ended questions and being good listeners. We also drew from the books "Don't Sing Songs to a Heavy Heart" by Kenneth Haugk and "What to Say When You Don't Know what to Say" by H. Norman Wright.

Getting ready for Thanksgiving with some fun from Host Ber Bolton and Pastors Tonya, BJ, Sue, Jeff and Michelle. We all have so much to be thankful for! 

Nina Boshers (LMFT) shared with us about attachment theory and how being aware of our roles (pursuer, withdrawer, secure, disorganized) informs our communication style in marriage (and life!). Host Ber Bolton and Pastor Tonya Marks inadvertently give an example of how this looks in friendship...much to Nina's delight! We also talk briefly about boundaries with extended family, around the holidays and in everyday life. (Hint: The answer is almost always....Talk about it!)  

Our friend, Brent Van Hook, came by to catch us up on what is happening with his family and his work with Shepherd's Fold Ministries.
