EmotiConversations

Hardcover |English |1498282520 | 9781498282529
Overview

How do you juggle workplace emotions? Dark and stormy seasons blow your way. Spectacular new opportunities emerge. Grief and loss descend. Financial crises loom. Office politics and busyness press on your soul. What about romantic tensions, rivalry, and bouts of bitterness? Must leaders shrug, settle, and simply tolerate such rugged scenarios, or could your accompanying responses actually become powerfully transformative, creating personal growth and a more redemptive impact on others? EmotiConversations winsomely invites leaders--movers and shakers working across various fields--to step into more intentional development in their deepest places. Get ready to encounter dynamically reflective redemption--for your own soul, for clients and coworkers, and even for people in far-off places 'round the globe. A creative mix--intriguing stories, motivating themes from the biblical narrative of Ruth, and savvy life skills--all stir together, challenging leaders to personally morph toward genuine emotional intelligence. You'll develop sharper skills to navigate your highs and lows and more authentically reflect the face of God. ""EmotiConversations is really different from your typical book on faith in the workplace. Using the framework of the Book of Ruth, it presents a theologically informed perspective of the relationship of our minds, behaviors, and feelings. A worthwhile read for anyone who desires to be an influencer for God and see their workplace be transformed into a place of redemptive ministry."" --John Tornfelt, retired Professor of Preaching and Ministry, Evangelical Theological Seminary; Author, Reunion: Meeting Ourselves Again for the First Time ""Rooted in Scripture and filled with practical application, EmotiConversations will help you better understand your emotions and lead more effectively. Based on years of research and experience, John and Holly provide insights which will increase your emotional intelligence and equip you to navigate emotions in important conversations, decisions, and relationships."" --Peter Greer, President & CEO, HOPE International; Co-author, Mission Drift ""There is a devastating and destructive modern myth that says faith is a private matter, and with it comes an insidious push to separate our beliefs and emotions from our communal activities, including work. In this new book, the authors masterfully mix real-world moments with timeless biblical truths to remind us we are created in the image of God as they guide us towards embracing emotions as redemptive tools in lives well lived."" --Randy Kilgore, Author; Workplace Chaplain & Senior Writer, Madetomatter.org ""I believe the Spirit of God has led John and Holly to write this book. They have combined insight with compassion in a way that can bring a reader through the dark night of the soul. I pray this book will be used of the Lord to conform his people to his image, 'for the sake of others.'"" --Christian Overman, Director, Worldview Matters John Elton Pletcher (DMin, Denver Seminary) serves as Lead Pastor at Manor Church in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. He also teaches as adjunct faculty for Eastern University and Evangelical Seminary. Holly Hall-Pletcher (MA, University of Phoenix) is a long-time educator and administrator from Newark, Ohio.
