1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,719 Speaker 1: And we started a series a couple of weeks ago 2 00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 1: called the Tongue Series. All right, pastor Chad, good morning 3 00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:08,240 Speaker 1: to you. How are you? 4 00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:11,000 Speaker 2: Good morning? Yeah, I'm doing really well this morning. 5 00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 1: Good good to hear. Okay, for those maybe that didn't 6 00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:17,120 Speaker 1: catch number one or maybe miss number two, give us 7 00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:19,759 Speaker 1: a recap on the first two parts of this four 8 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:20,960 Speaker 1: part series. 9 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 2: If you would, sure, we'll. We called it how to 10 00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:25,800 Speaker 2: keep your foot out of your Mouth. I'm not sure 11 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,440 Speaker 2: we're going to completely succeed in that'll at least try 12 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 2: to get some wisdom about your tongue. We talked about 13 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 2: how the tongue is a well, like a old fashioned 14 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 2: wishing well. You take the bucket down, you scoop out 15 00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:39,000 Speaker 2: of what's in the bottom before it comes out the top. 16 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:41,680 Speaker 2: And so if you have a tongue problem, you probably 17 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 2: have a heart problem because the tongue just speaks out 18 00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 2: of what's happening in the heart. And the second week 19 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:49,560 Speaker 2: we talked about how the tongue can be a source 20 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 2: of life or death. And you think about in your past, 21 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:54,959 Speaker 2: there's people who walk into the room and when they 22 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 2: say things, you just feel like there's more life in 23 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:02,280 Speaker 2: the room. You seel, encourage you, feel respected, feel laughter. 24 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 2: And then this week we're talking about how the tongue 25 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 2: is really a puzzle and it needs to fit the situation. 26 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 2: Certain words fit one situation, but they don't fit another situation. 27 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 2: And how do we use our tongue to maybe put 28 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 2: the final piece. Your words in a situation, in a 29 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 2: relationship might be that missing piece that helps somebody have 30 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,600 Speaker 2: the courage to step out and do something they wouldn't 31 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 2: have otherwise, the courage to overcome some depression. That really 32 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 2: our words can be the last puzzle piece, but it 33 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 2: also needs to fit the situation. With the three t's 34 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:38,679 Speaker 2: I like to talk about, which is are you using 35 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:42,039 Speaker 2: the right tone for this situation in this person? Are 36 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 2: you using the right timing? Man, maybe right before bed 37 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 2: is not the best time to have this argument, Or 38 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 2: maybe right before bed is the best time to connect 39 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 2: with your teenager because that's the time they're a little 40 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 2: more open. You can sit on their bed and just 41 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 2: how is your day, and it might be the best time. 42 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 2: And then lastly is trust, which is have you built 43 00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 2: an trust that what you're about to share with this 44 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 2: particular person that you've earned the right to speak that 45 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 2: in their life and they're interested. 46 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 3: So that's what we talk about today. What it looked 47 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 3: like for the tongue to be a puzzle. How do 48 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 3: you have the right pieces, maybe use your words as 49 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 3: a missing piece, and how to put it in the 50 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 3: context of maybe the bigger picture. 51 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 2: Of the situation or the issue that you're in. 52 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: You know a lot of this, and you talked about it, Chad, 53 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 1: the situation, and you talked about how it can be 54 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: different in one room. We'll use that as an example, okay, 55 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: as opposed to another room. And you hit on something 56 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 1: that I've heard people talk about a lot, and it 57 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:43,839 Speaker 1: exists in my marriage where oftentimes it's the guy who 58 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 1: wants to get something straightened out at ten o'clock at night, right, Yeah, 59 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: and you know, you know what I'm saying. You're laughing 60 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 1: about it, and you know, maybe for your wife or 61 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 1: maybe the situation's reversed where all of a sudden, this 62 00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: is just not the time to do this, and now 63 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 1: all of a sudden you can get a little frustrated 64 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: if you're the one who wants to do Well, what 65 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: do you say to somebody like that? 66 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 2: Well, I'd say start with kind of what's the internal 67 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:11,920 Speaker 2: priority system you have in your head, Like in your 68 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 2: head you say, maam, this will be successful if we 69 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 2: get this resolve tonight. That's your number one priority. And 70 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 2: to kind of remind yourself, if I try and get 71 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 2: this resolve tonight, it will not only not only get resolved, 72 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 2: but it's actually going to cause a bigger problem and 73 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:27,839 Speaker 2: blow up and I'm gonna have a bigger mestic clean. 74 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 2: So almost look at what's the second priority. I want 75 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 2: this resolved quickly, but it doesn't have to be tonight, 76 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 2: just that simple. But right now, you've got this has 77 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 2: to be resolved tonight or I've got to speak my mind. 78 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 2: Let that person know how I feel. That becomes your 79 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 2: driver rather than all right. There's this old proverb that 80 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 2: says a word fitly spoken is like apples of gold 81 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 2: in settings of silver. Does the way I'm expressed this 82 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 2: fit the situation is the timing of this fit the 83 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 2: best way to express And we talked a couple months 84 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 2: ago how my wife and I agreed, maybe twenty years 85 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 2: ago in our marriage, not to have any intense conversations 86 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 2: after ten PM because that's when she's most tired. She's 87 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 2: doing everything she can to not get angry and it 88 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 2: just didn't resolve well, versus saying yourself, Okay, I don't 89 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 2: want this to lean on or linger on, but hey, 90 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 2: i'd like to resolve this. Can we talk about this 91 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 2: tomorrow and make some time for it. It can just 92 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 2: be so much better because when you when your gauges 93 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 2: are higher, your emotional gauges, your physical gauges, you're rested, 94 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 2: you're just going to have more willpower and both to 95 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 2: control the tongue but also to kind of discern the 96 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 2: situation better. And we've all had moments where we just 97 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 2: kind of botched it, right, I mean, sometimes it's appropriate. 98 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 2: I got relative, yeah exactly, I get a relative who 99 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 2: talks too long. You know, when you get on the 100 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,119 Speaker 2: phone with them, it's two hours. You can ever get off. 101 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 2: But one day my mom was trying to warn me 102 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:04,840 Speaker 2: that because I was calling this relative with my dad, 103 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 2: they were gonna call together. My dad always likes using 104 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 2: a speakerphone, so Dad lets it dial. While it's dialing, 105 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 2: it's ringing, ring, ringing. So my mom's like, he just 106 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 2: you know, this relative really talks a lot. D well, 107 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 2: my dad, we thought he had it on mute. So 108 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 2: my mom was giving me instructions. I try to get 109 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,040 Speaker 2: off the phone. Next thing we know, we're not on mute, 110 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:28,479 Speaker 2: and you hear this relative saying hello Diane. Chad like, 111 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,039 Speaker 2: we looked at each other, our jaws dropped, my contact, 112 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 2: We look at my dad. You didn't have it on mute. 113 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 2: And he's like, oh, I'm like, it's not inappropriate to 114 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 2: say to somebody. They just so you know, when you 115 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 2: call so and so, it might take two hours, But 116 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 2: my goodness, don't do that with somebody who can't run 117 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:50,280 Speaker 2: their own technology. My dad, Yeah, with with while you're 118 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 2: on speakerphone, and oh my goodness. And then how do 119 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:53,919 Speaker 2: you apologize for that? You kind of hope they didn't 120 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 2: hear what you're saying. Yeah, you know, we've all been. 121 00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 1: There, well, you know, and you talk about something you 122 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,840 Speaker 1: used a great example and talking to maybe for your 123 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: teenagers at night is the best time to just go 124 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: in there. And you know, but what I'm getting at, 125 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: I guess the word because I get and I know 126 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 1: it's true. So it's not like my wife is telling 127 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 1: me something I don't know. It's true. For a lot 128 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 1: of us, so much of this and you talk about 129 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: a piece of a puzzle with your tongue? Is tone right? Tone? 130 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: Do you have any Do you have any suggestions for 131 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 1: a guy like me or any of our listeners out 132 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:36,359 Speaker 1: there on how to Is there some Can you change 133 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,919 Speaker 1: your tone? And think about how to change your tone? 134 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 2: I think you can. And sometimes that's incentives, Like if 135 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 2: I told you and by the end of the week, 136 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 2: I'll give you a million dollars if you can talk nicely, 137 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,239 Speaker 2: kindly and gently, I bet you can be motivated. Yeah, 138 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 2: sometimes it's motivation, And I do think in the same 139 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 2: way you can learn from these two ways to learn, 140 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 2: the wise and the foolish person. The wise person learns 141 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,919 Speaker 2: from other people's mistakes. The fool only learns from his 142 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 2: own mistakes. And there's an old proverb that says the 143 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 2: wives can learn from one mistake, and a thousand lashes 144 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 2: is what it takes for the fool. So I would say, 145 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 2: look at your drack record? Did this work very well? 146 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 2: Is this painful? I want to avoid pain? And I 147 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 2: think you can. And the way I would do it 148 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 2: practically is like any other area of life, do you 149 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 2: have some coaches, not only I like literally, find somebody 150 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 2: to coach your tongue. I mean, look at people in 151 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 2: your life who are good at this. Call them like 152 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 2: mouth mentors. I've got two guys that when they call me, 153 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 2: every time they call me, they make it about me, 154 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 2: and they ask me how I'm doing. They encourage me. 155 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 2: They say, man a chat, I just think you're doing 156 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 2: a great job here, You're such a great dad there. 157 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 2: And I walk away from that and I feel like 158 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 2: they put pieces into me, like my puzzle wasn't complete 159 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 2: and I didn't even know it. I'm filled up. Think 160 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 2: about the people in your life who do that regularly. 161 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 2: I had a call yesterday with a buddy mine, one 162 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:00,080 Speaker 2: of my best men in my wedding. I talk and 163 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 2: maybe once a year these days, and the same thing. 164 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 2: I was going to rattle off what I'm doing and 165 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 2: what I'm up to, and I thought, you know what, 166 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 2: I want to try to think about what he needs. 167 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 2: And he described some tense situations he's in and some 168 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 2: challenges of work, and I said, you know what, this 169 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 2: is a chance for me to put a puzzle piece in. 170 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 2: So I said, you know what, this is something I 171 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 2: always admired about you, the way in which you encourage 172 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 2: people and affirm people and help people navigate tough stuff. 173 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 2: I think you're really doing what God has called you 174 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 2: to do and what really fits your your strengths. He said, well, man, 175 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 2: thanks buddy, you know, and doesn't mean I couldn't harass 176 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 2: him the rest of the phone call, as guys do. 177 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 2: But I think looking for mentors, meaning people you watch 178 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:40,439 Speaker 2: you go. Look how they did that, Look how they 179 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 2: crafted that, Look how they used the right word in 180 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 2: the right time. And then I think part of not 181 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 2: just having a kind of maybe it's going to call 182 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 2: a mentor take it somebody you look up to who 183 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 2: does this. Well, I just say, start quickly catching yourself, 184 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 2: which is, hey, honey, you know what I think. I'm 185 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 2: a little too intense right now. Can I try over? 186 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 2: I start over? Hey, you know it sounds that sounds 187 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 2: like this is not going in the direction I wanted, 188 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 2: And didn't try to say what do you need right 189 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 2: now from me? Do you need appreciation? What do you 190 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 2: need from me right now? Do you need space? What 191 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 2: do you need right now for me to listen? So 192 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 2: ask the question what do you need? I say the 193 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 2: same thing if you have eighteen to twenty year old 194 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 2: year old kids or even older. One of the greatest 195 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 2: things you can do during that transition is instead of 196 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 2: still parenting them, which we all want to parent them. Hey, 197 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 2: you ought to do this, watch out for that. Don't 198 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 2: fall in that ditch. Start the conversation with this. This 199 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,599 Speaker 2: will set the tone. Are you open to another perspective 200 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 2: that shows respect? Can I share another opinion with you? 201 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 2: When you ask a question before you share your opinion, 202 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 2: it communicates respect. It also says I really want you 203 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 2: to listen, but you don't have to, but I really 204 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,319 Speaker 2: care about you and think that this might be helpful. 205 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:55,439 Speaker 2: You might be a husband who comes in the door 206 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 2: as soon as you come in the door, your wife, 207 00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 2: you know, desperately, she's been with the kids all day, 208 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,440 Speaker 2: or she said the tough day of work, and she 209 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 2: suddenly just wants to unload on you. And you might say, honey, 210 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 2: when I first get home and first come in the door, 211 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 2: that's just not the best time for me. I do 212 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 2: want to listen. I do want to know what's going on. 213 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 2: Can you give me like fifteen minutes to decompress? Can 214 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 2: we wait till after dinner? That way, you say to her, 215 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 2: you are important, what you feel is important, what you 216 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 2: need is important. But Also, I'm not in the best 217 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 2: place when I first walk in the door to be 218 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 2: at my best to do that with you. So that's 219 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 2: what I would do. Think about how to before you 220 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 2: share your opinion on anything, start with a question, are 221 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 2: you open to this perspective? Can I share this opinion 222 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 2: to find some guys in your life? For people in 223 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 2: your life you think are really good at using tone 224 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 2: and just kind of study as they speak when you're 225 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 2: at a party, when you see them at work, and 226 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,679 Speaker 2: what do they do while I walk in the room 227 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 2: and want to tell all my favorite twenty stories because 228 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 2: I kind of struggle with that too, Versus, how do 229 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,679 Speaker 2: I walk in the room and say who's around me? 230 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 2: That's an unfinished puzzle And how could I put another 231 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,959 Speaker 2: piece into their lives to really bless them? 232 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: That is? I just think there is so much to 233 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 1: learn from all of this. We're talking with Pastor Chad 234 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,719 Speaker 1: Hoven from the Horizon Community Church. Last thing I want 235 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 1: to ask you I got about a minute and a half. 236 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: We talked about timing, We talked about tone. What do 237 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: you mean by trust? 238 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 2: Well, there's some people that you don't know them real well, 239 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 2: they don't know you, and you think you can suddenly 240 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,319 Speaker 2: speak to how they should change their whole life. You've 241 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 2: got people who give unsolicited feedback or they come at you. 242 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 2: And there's some guys who could use a tone that's 243 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 2: very direct, very blunt, and you'd say, you know what, 244 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 2: I can take that because I know they love me. 245 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 2: I know they've been for me. I know they've been 246 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 2: in the trenches with me, and they can actually be 247 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 2: more direct and less pleasantries because you know you have 248 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 2: the depth of relationship, and in the depth of relationship 249 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 2: you get the right you've earned it. Hey, I know 250 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 2: this person's sacrifice for me. I know this one maybe 251 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 2: has my back. So that sent different words to describe 252 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 2: that trust relationship. You still I think could communicate respectfully. Hey, buddy, 253 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 2: I noticed something when we were talking the other day. 254 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,080 Speaker 2: When we're at that party, are you over to a 255 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,079 Speaker 2: feedback and the answer, whether you asked that or not, 256 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 2: it might be for a lot of people who say, no, 257 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 2: I don't trust the way you handle your life. I 258 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 2: don't trust the way you if you start giving me 259 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 2: marriage advice. So when at the party, you say, man, 260 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 2: the way he talks to his wife is terrible. His 261 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 2: rush of his kids is terrible. So no, I probably 262 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 2: don't really trust you and your motives, as I don't 263 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,319 Speaker 2: trust that that we all imperfectly are trying to live life. 264 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 2: That some people are more imperfect than others and they 265 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,319 Speaker 2: may not have a lot of wisdom show in the theory. 266 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 2: On the other hand, you might say, I may not 267 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 2: trust you for your finances because your finance is are wreck. 268 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,080 Speaker 2: But you know, my goodness, I've never seen anyone who's 269 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 2: better at encouraging people. Yeah, I'd love some advice there, 270 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 2: so don't discount people. But with a trusting relationship, you 271 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 2: want to say, you know, have I put enough? As 272 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 2: an old old analogy, have I've put enough coins in 273 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 2: your pocket that it's time for withdrawal? And if you're 274 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 2: trying to withdraw with a tough conversation or a crucial 275 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 2: conversation or difficult conversation, have you put enough change in 276 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 2: their pocket from the moments that you've handed them a 277 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 2: quarter of an encouragement or you're begetting there when no 278 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:17,320 Speaker 2: one else turned it back. You find out who your 279 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,199 Speaker 2: real friends are when you know you're in the fire 280 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 2: and everybody turns it back, you say, you know, I 281 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 2: put a lot of change in this person's pocket, my son, 282 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 2: my daughter, and my colleague, my business partner. I'm going 283 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 2: to have to take a big withdrawal here, but that 284 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 2: trust is like the change in the pocket. Yep. 285 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 1: Great, great stuff in this series. I think that we 286 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 1: can all learn so much. And I mean, you know, look, 287 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 1: we have hundreds of thousands of people listening to this 288 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,319 Speaker 1: on a weekly basis, and I just to hear it. 289 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 1: I can look in a mirror. No, I got to 290 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 1: make some changes and the things in the way that 291 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: I do it. So I want to say thank you 292 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:52,200 Speaker 1: very much. 293 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 2: Well, well, thank you. I certainly am a fellow struggler 294 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 2: in the journey. And they always say, if you preach 295 00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,319 Speaker 2: your weaknesses, you'll never run out of material. 296 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 1: Except not an. 297 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 2: Expert on this, but certainly a slow traveler on the drink. 298 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 1: I like that. I like I gotta remember that. All right, Chad, 299 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 1: I have a great rest of your day. Thanks for 300 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 1: your time, man, all right, past your chat over.
