Communication is a process of sharing information with another person in such a way that
he or she UNDERSTANDS what you are saying.
Talking and listening and UNDERSTANDING
are all involved in the process of communication.
COMMUNICATION IS MORE THAN JUST WORDS
Generally, most people wrongly think that communication is synonymous with talking.
- To “talk” is to utter words ... but to “communicate” is to transfer thoughts!
TRUTH: We communicate by WORDS, GESTURES and SPIRIT!
- Researchers say that 55 percent of all communication is nonverbal.
THE NEED FOR ACTIVE LISTENING
James 1:19
The most basic communication skill needed is not talking ... but LISTENING.
Prov. 18:13
ACTIVE LISTENING means that when someone is talking,
- You are tuning in fully to what that person is saying.
- You are actively seeking to understand what the other person really means.
You are not thinking about what you are going to say when that person stops.
- You are not “second guessing” your friend or partner—thinking that you already know what he/she is going to say.
