From Cornerstone Psychological Associates in Boise, Morning Light welcomes back Dr. Kathy Edwards…here today to talk about communication skills. Have you ever heard of “true, necessary, and kind.” How do we assert our needs in this world but still make sure we are not being aggressive or rude or unkind? Here are some Scripture passages to help you out:

James 1:19 - Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger.

Ephesians 4:29 - Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building  others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.

Proverbs 18:13 - To answer before listening – that is folly and shame.

Proverbs 18:2 - Fools find no pleasure in understanding but delight in airing their own opinions.

Proverbs 12:18 - The words of the reckless pierce like swords, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.

"Cooking With Scripture" is a weekly segment of Morning Light hosted by Chef Lou Aaron, owner of Westside Drive-In and a Deacon at Our Lady of the Rosary parish in S.E. Boise. Chef could not be with us this morning so we jumped into the Way-Back Machine to grab this "Best of" segment from June 30, 2020 talking about Caesar Salad.

Alanna Burg & John Keenan from the Idaho Lay Dominicans join Morning Light to continue their series on St. Paul’s Letter to the Colossians… today, Chapter 1, verses 15-29.
