Emotional intelligence is the ability to recognize your emotions, regulate them, and understand and influence the feelings of others positively. It gives you the ability to decode emotions (yours and others) and use that awareness to guide your decisions! Some people say EQ is more important than IQ, because people with really high IQs can at times be really tone deaf emotionally.

So what does EQ have to do with loving Jesus? A LOT! Turns out, the degree to which we love people is the degree to which we love God. We are called to love people.

Now, one practical tool you can use to love people better is to take their temperature. This is an exercise that allows each person in the relationship the ability to express themselves. When you take someone’s temperature, what you’re finding out is what’s really going on inside of the person
