INSTANT TAKEAWAYS

1 | Do You Feel Awkward?

At the Life Center, they are training people to interact with and care for the needy so we can get past that initial, “awkward” phase of the relationship we have with needy people. Learn to love people’s “messy” and get in there with them so you can build a relationship so you can start to move their neediness away from dependency to sustainability.

2 | Utilize Your Gifts, Serve Where You Can

We really want to work on service, the best way that we can. The best thing that we can do is to step out of the way of our own views, our own biases, and what we think we can do to help, and lean into helpful service and meet people where they are. Our focus should be on the service itself, what is the most helpful in developing skill sets to move towards a more sustainable lifestyle.
