Care Talk Shannon Plate

Your ministry can be the most welcoming and trustworthy place in town. Staff and volunteers can become confident in their compassion skills, helping people feel heard, understood, and loved.
For ministry to be its best, skilled communication is essential. Care Talk provides key concepts and practical training for staff members and volunteers to care for the people God entrusts to the church.
This book introduces the ideas of:
-Responding to what you hear (not what you think about what you hear).
- Being accessible, curious, and tenderhearted.
-Connecting via posture, orientation, and eye contact.
This is a compact and easy read filled with trainable concepts and designed to make great communication in ministry accessible. Though written for the church at large, these skills will enhance every relationship in your life.
