I have never studied Boston and Berstien or other of the group models that you shared. Would be interested in how these support Biblical principles. Frank, thanks sharing.

There is a science, with this & other studies/models with thousands observed, reporting & outcomes measured. It would be no surprise to you to see that Biblical principles support what the evidence shows as effective... would love to talk with ya some time... interesting… in the 38 years I’ve been leading group therapy, I have often found the Boston or Berstien model of group development helpful… There is a science, with this & other studies/models with thousands observed, reporting & outcomes measured.

Now I just stop mid-sentence. That's a good thing. Looking forward to seeing how this develops in the future. Speaking the truth in love is a far better way to go. :) It’s been almost 3 weeks since the 21 day fast and I now am clearly aware of when I fall into sarcasm. Now I just stop mid-sentence.

God wants us to focus our mind on things uplifting, positive things that are of Him. We are to build each other up in the faith so how can we do this if we are sarcastic? We can't.

I really don't know how else to teach. If it's not apart of me then I really don't have the right to "let it go." I want to keep growing as a Kingdom leader who lives biblically and releases life with both actions and words. Thanks for sharing! ;) Great to hear from you Kath.
