10 Great Conversation Starters

0 Comments | Submitted: 06/09/2010 01:36 PM

As we continue to learn about the Five Love Languages and specifically the way Jesus lived them out, here are a few conversation starters in case you feel a little pressed to come up with new questions to ask your loved one. Some come from the book, Five Love Languages, by Dr. Gary Chapman.

 

  • What is the worst memory of your childhood? What is the best memory of your childhood?
  • Have I ever done anything nice for you that surprised you? What was it?
  • Have you ever experienced God in an unlikely situation? What was it like?
  • Go to a beautiful place, and take turns describing three or four things in the colors, plants, and beauty around you that reminds you of your friend.
  • What makes a perfect morning for you?
  • Brainstorm a list of five to ten things that you want to do together before your next anniversary. Celebrate completing your list on your anniversary.
 
These are just a few ideas to get you started with more Quality Time with a significant other, friend, or family member. Have fun!

Mother's Day

Hey, it is hard to be a mother. Children and babies are a source of great joy for the world. Just search Youtube for cute babies, and you will get crushed under the ensuing avalanche of results. But it's hard raising those babies.

This Sunday, we will of course remember and celebrate our mothers.

You can join in right now by watching this fun clip from a new movie that is out:

 

Have a blessed Mother's Day!

It's Not Holy Week Anymore

Yes, Holy Week has left us and recedes into memory once again, but it still sort of feels like that festival spirit around EDCC.

Why?

Well, this weekend, for instance, we have a jam-packed bunch of possibilities for visitors and friends and church members to have a good time. Like on Saturday, you can come up to the church at 7 PM to Alexander's Stage to hear the excellent jazz flutist, Michael Morton, perform. It's a free concert with coffee and food available. Have a date on us...

Or Sunday, following our awesome Sanctuary service, we kick off our annual Spring Fling. Donations are accepted and go to support one of our neighborhood ministries, the Stewpot. At 2 PM, you can join other church members to walk the Crop Walk. Sunday is a great day to dress casual and be at church.

It's feeling like a festival around here.
