Mid-afternoon on Day 1 of the Women of Faith conference, there was a Q&A session with Sheila Walsh and Dr. Henry Cloud. Attendees were invited to drop anonymous questions into baskets from which the questions were chosen.
I couldn't see Sheila and Henry during this portion to take a picture since they were seated and I was stuck behind one of the monitors that circled the stage.
But here are some of the notable quotes that came from the Q&A session:
"To make any marriage work well, you have to be part of a community." -- Dr. C.
"You don't want anybody in your cage (your community) who doesn't want to be there." -- Dr. C.
"A burden is bigger than a person can carry." -- SW
I tweeted this yesteday but I'll requote it here:
"Somebody can hand their stuff to you, but you don't have to take it." -- SW
"Marriage is one of the most perfect places to learn to be more like Christ." -- SW
"When you can draw boundaries and live with the uncomfortableness for a while, you will end up with something worth fighting for." -- SW
"'No' is a complete sentence." -- SW
"Identity is always about saying 'no'...You will never find yourself by starting at the top...Try a bunch of stuff...You will find your gift in your heart." -- Dr. C.
The two were full of wisdom and humor, and together gave great answers to some complex, intriguing questions.
I have so much more to share. Stay tuned...
Peace & Blessings,
Patricia
