Editorial Reviews

Product Description
A foundational book for all adults to help you discover the skill of listening in three different areas of your life—helping your relationships, helping others, and helping yourself.

Helping Your Relationships—Here the focus is on freedom from the bondage of legalism as it impacts relationships; as well as communication skills for moving through life with another imperfect person who needs the grace of God as much as you.

Helping Others—You learn, in your role as a servant leader, how to shine a flashlight on the path into another's conflict—to help him discover his way back to God and people he cares for. You learn how to lead him to self-discovery and confession at the foot of the cross. You show him how to leave his burden there through the cleansing and forgiveness of the Lord.

Helping Yourself—To experience relief from pain, as well as to enjoy the peace, joy, and love that come through a life of faith empowered by the grace of God.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to Read Book for Everyone, April 28, 2003

By A Customer

In a quick easy to understand style, Dallas and Nancy Demmitt capture in print the principles of listening that they have been teaching for over 20 years. Almost every person on the planet needs help with listening. In our noisy world, the art of listening to another person has been lost.

Pick up this book. I recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Book for Everyone, October 8, 2007

By	E. Secord - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

After 30 years of marriage, this book gave us a method for truly communicating. The techniques can also be used on the job or anywhere in life. It takes some intentional practice, but the results are well worth it. We seem to keep buying books to hand out to friends.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can You Hear Me Now?, April 6, 2007

By	L. Benson (West Rutland, VT) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

One of the very best books I've ever read on this subject! Many scriptural references adds to credibility. This book changed our lives and after 38 years of marriage, my husband and I are fully communicating on all levels (physical, emotional, spiritual). We are using this book in our small groups study and find that many couples with lack of communication in their marriage open their hearts, become vulnerable, and find that deep, satisfying communication takes place. We have suggested the book to many couples and receive nothing but positive feedback on the results of reading the book! It's really great!
