03. Spiritual Talk
Having a Spritual Talk?
When someone approaches you to have a meaningful conversation, surely you will love someone who approaches you in these ways.
- Acceptance: Welcoming other opinions, values, and beliefs even if their views differ from your own.
- Curiosity: Try to understand the person with open-ended questions.
- Authenticity: Speaking truthfully and expressing your thoughts and feelings openly, without pretense.
- Humility: engaging without judgment with gentleness and compassion.
- Empathy: truly putting yourself in the other person’s shoes without rushing to share your views.
- Mindfulness: By slowing down and giving the conversation your full attention, it helps you respond thoughtful.
Holding these qualities in your mind creates a safe and nurturing environment. It helps your conversational partner understand their own hearts and helps them to explore their spiritual journey to be open to the love of Christ!

5Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. Philippians 2:5-8
