Sources? Resources? I'd like to read what you're reading so I can throw it in Evernote and come back to it again someday.

Can't wait to run this past our Sanctuary Guild.

In short, I was didactic in any dialogue up to and through college. Most conversations would start with a defensive, "Well, the Bible says ___, so...." After going through the Institute most of my conversations shifted from preach-y to teach-y; when I get asked questions, I "know" the answer and try to exhaustively explain it. Now, I'm at a point where I realize how arrogant I must have been coming across (a 27-year-old-with-a-master's-know-it-all). The more I study and the more I dialogue the more I learn about how little I know. Granted, we were taught well at the Institute and I learned a LOT more than I ever had. But instead of proving my worth as a teacher of the Word, I'm asking more questions and helping people understand things where they lack and am seeking to understand where I lack. I still have the tendency to explain. But I'm learning how to explore.
