Discipleship Conversation #7: The Gift and Ministry of Listening

In this podcast, we discuss listening as both ministry and gift. The art of listening is a skill to be learned. In our conversations, we are often processing how we want to respond or distracted by our own thoughts. Listening as a gift helps us practice the "one another-isms" in the New Testament, as we put others' needs ahead of our own and honour others above ourselves.

We demonstrate this type of listening towards the end of the podcast as Jeremy shares some recent disappointments and Steven listens to him in a way that helps Jeremy process the disappointments in a positive way that enables him to find growth.
