    Social Micro-Disciplines (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Social situations constantly invite us to compete for attention, comfort, status, even recognition in front of others. A few tiny choices make a big difference in how we function in these settings.This is the final installment in this series I’ve been doing on micro-disciplines.

    Conversational Micro-Disciplines (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Good conversation isn’t just about what you say, it’s also what you don’t say. In this series I’ve been doing on micro-disciplines, I now want to add these eight quite small but still significant disciplines not only for taming the tongue (James 3:5-8) but also for taming our phones, stories, and opinions.Our speech is particularly suited to micro-disciplines.
