The Open-Hearted Approach (Phases 2, 3) | A Process for Discernment, Episode 2
Host: Steve Macchia | Guests: John Pearson and Matt Scott
“I think we shortchange the Holy Spirit by not asking, ‘Lord, who do you want on this discernment team?’ It makes a world of difference.” – John Pearson
Who is helping you discern? How willing are you to let go of your ideas and opinions? John Pearson and Matt Scott return to the podcast to phase two and three of the discernment process. In phase two we consider who the right people are to discern a decision. Matt shares from experience the benefit of inviting those people that know us best, love us most and are going to be impacted by our decision to the discernment process. In the church and nonprofit side, John and Steve encourage us to invite a representation of all those who are a part of the organization. The third phase deals with our willingness to let go of power and choose humility by holding our ideas and opinions with an open hand and an open heart.
