TBCS - Margaret - Conference - Building Relationships that Thrive
Josh McDowell –
Personal Notes from Course
Displine is worthless without relationship
Truth is worthless without relationship
Discipline without relationship leads to rebellion
Affirmation – affirm their feelings
Rejoice with those who
rejoice. Weep with those who weep Romans
12:15
Share in their sorrow,
rejoice in their happiness
(Blame, suck it up,
quote scripture) identify in their hurt
Finding out what is
wrong – what are you feeling. Feeling
questions not thinking questions
Share in your kids
sorrow and happiness
Acceptance
Romans 15:7 Therefore
accept each other just as Christ accepted you so that God will be given glory
Your child will rise
to the level of your opinion of them.
Appreciation
Give them a sense of
significance – done or said something worthwhile
Matthew 3:7 This is my son and Im well pleased in him
The sweetest sound is
praise – XENOPHON
Availability
A sense of importance
TIME Matthew 19:14
But Jesus said “Let the children come to me
Spend time with your
kids otherwise they wont come home
Affection
Give them a sense of
them a sense of their lovability
John 15:12 Love each
other as I have loved you
Verbally, express
appropriate physical affection
Approach
Sense of connection –
connect with what what they are interested in
Give them a sense of
What Im interested in Mum is interested in
Accountability
Responsibility give limits and boundaries (with
relationship) without leads to rebellion
Wifi protection
So the next generation
will know - book
TBCS - Margaret-Conference - Improving Religion in Class
Septic Religion –
Shaun Brooker
Notes from Course
Worldview chart – use
this with students
What does the Bible
Say?
What do others say?
What do I believe?
We think by osmosis
they are going to get it. We need to be
more intentional
Intentional sheet
Christians(students)
who have walked away – you shalt not rather than proclaiming life – relate to
our students. How they deal with mercy
and grace and justice
Rules – we don’t do
this at a Christian school – not an understanding of the rules but
understanding of a relationship – he has promises for us
Discpiline/disciple –
how does it help them with their walk with the lord and represent him well.
Prayer – daily, set
words you should pray, not based on reality.
Laying hands – praying
for each other
Risk – what do we not
want it to turn into – a wishing well, repetitive prayers, meaningless prayer
What is the intention
– worship – why? Time to reflect on the
words/verse
Verse of the week –
before prayer – each contemplate what it means
Worship - Student
led/inspired – assembly leaders to talk about the words before playing the song
(like a worship leader at church)
Verses – themed/or
based on what are the key verses you want kids to know when they leave.
Seans – memorisation
plan on website – how so we make it relevant for what they are going through
tomorrow.
TBCS - Margaret - Conference - Emotional Intelligence
Notes from Course
LOVE PEOPLE
Alex Snary – Emotional Intelligence
If you had to choose between getting the job
done or developing a relationship what would you choose?
If we don’t know how
to work in a way that maintains relationships everything fails
Look back on your
school years – what do you take away with you?
Successful leadership
and emotional intelligence
Studies – what leads
to people moving up the ladder – the ability to be able to relate to others
When people are in a
positive environment they are much more successful
Daniel Goldman
Are we equipping our
children for a successful life?
Things that show poor
emotional intelligence skills
The ability to listen to others
Defensiveness
Need to control others
Need to win the
conversation
The Opposite
Lack of defensive
Open to others
Value others
Sensitivity
Release people into
their gifting
Abide by a decision
that didn’t go your way.
Some of us start
further down the line in emotional intelligence – we can all get better at it
Self awareness – if I am not aware of how I am feeling – then
I can actively manage it
Strengths, weakness
Whats causing me to
feel this way?
Self assessment/ leads
naturally to confidence in ourselves. We
cannot change what we are not aware of.
Openly assess
ourselves
Its what we do with
the emotion that counts
We need people in our
lives that can speak to us (students – knowing them)
Have at least 3 people
that can speak to you in your lives
Reflection after
feedback – space for reflection (in class)
Regular feedback with
students
Self Management – once I understand I have the power on how to
respond
Looking around us – in
our workplace/to others
The brain should rule
the heart – thinking before we speak
Leadership – be
perceived as trustworthy
Adaptability – adapt
leadership style according to situation (different students/classes)
Trustworthiness –
integrity, honesty, self control
Social Awareness
Family/Collegues/Students
Sensing emotions of
others – empathy
Social Clues – whats
not being said
Physical cues/non
verbal ques
Having the interest to
ask questions and observe
Love people
Levels of loving
people – Do we really love our kids?
Any other motivation
apart from love students will pick this up.
Have a heart for
people
Pray for a heart for people. How do I keep loving them?
Empathy will naturally
flow from this
Got to have the love
to engage. Empathy leads to social
awareness
What is my
motivation? Am I serving the interest of
the students I teach?
Relationship management – improving the way we have relationship with
others
People with higher EQ
naturally find themselves in positions where they are given permission to speak
into peoples lives
Love People
That what kids will
remember – those who encourage them, speak to them, love them genuinely
