A Few Key Ideas:
- Why Tony felt that it was important to write a book titled, People Skills For Christians
- Christians can be authentically born again and have salvation through Jesus Christ, but not have great people skills.
- Sometimes God will change the desires of your heart – professionally, relationally, and emotionally.
- Maybe the Bible is more practical to everyday living than we acknowledge.
- Are we still at 6 degrees of separation or is it less now
- Tony explains the primary way that new opportunities come to us from God
- TWEETABLE: “Sometimes we make it difficult for God to bless us because the right people don’t like us.”
