Register Today!   Brian Kilpatrick is the Chief Operating Officer of Trinity Park Conservancy. With nearly four decades of experience in the attractions and hospitality industry, Brian has built a career that spans multiple disciplines, including food and beverage, retail, finance, and operations. His journey began at SeaWorld, where he spent 35 years, and later took him to leadership roles at Anakeesta and the Artis—Naples performing arts center. Now, at Trinity Park Conservancy, he is focused on creating accessible and sustainable green spaces for the Dallas community. In this interview, Brian talks about building green space intentionally, being a good listener, and getting to know the community. Building Green Space Intentionally "We are building Dallas's Central Park." Trinity Park Conservancy's mission is to transform the Trinity River into a connected and accessible green space for the Dallas community. Brian emphasizes the importance of designing Harold Simmons Park with clear intent, ensuring it serves as more than just a recreational area—it's a space for nature, conservation, and community gathering. The project spans 250 acres and is designed to unite Dallas through a series of scenic overlooks, improved pedestrian access, and a deep focus on sustainability. Drawing from his theme park background, Brian applies best practices in operational planning to ensure the park remains well-maintained and inviting for years to come. Being a Good Listener "I've learned over the years, and again, I think it's evolved into my style today, that you really have to be inclusive of what you're going to use from a knowledge base and experience base to make a decision." Throughout his career, Brian has adapted his leadership style to focus on active listening and inclusivity. Early in his career, he admits to being more assertive, but over time, he realized the power of truly understanding the perspectives of others before making decisions. At Trinity Park Conservancy, listening plays a central role in ensuring the project aligns with community needs. Whether it's gathering feedback from stakeholders or engaging in conversations with local residents, Brian stresses the importance of hearing different viewpoints to create a space that reflects the desires of those it serves. His ability to synthesize insights from various sources, including community members and industry peers, has been instrumental in shaping the vision for Harold Simmons Park. Getting to Know the Community "I can tell you without a doubt, if I walked you through the park plan today, the elements of the park are what the community told us they wanted." Brian recognizes that for Trinity Park Conservancy to be successful, it must reflect the unique needs of the people it serves. Understanding the historical and socioeconomic landscape of Dallas, he and his team have taken a grassroots approach to community engagement. By meeting with residents, attending local board meetings, and walking the grounds himself, Brian has built connections that help inform the park's development. The Conservancy's commitment to listening to the community has led to a park design that directly incorporates their input, ensuring it fosters inclusivity and unity. Brian's leadership ensures that Harold Simmons Park is not just a project but a shared vision with the people of Dallas.   Brian Kilpatrick can be reached via LinkedIn or by email at Brian.Kilpatrick@TPCDallas.org.

Background - Where did this topic come from. It started with conviction. God has really been laying on my heart the need to do a better job of listeningJames 1: 19 19 My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry. I confess…I need to be better at this. You know this…I don't like the silence. I will quickly fill it with my words. Not a great quality for a pastoral counselor/life coach. I am also way too impatience when I am listening to others. It's like I want to speed up their thought and finish their sentence for them if they are struggling. Again….not a good quality for a counselor or coach. But I don't think I'm alone in this. God's been showing me how poorly we as believers are doing in truly listening to others. We're not taking the time to truly listen.So we want to help those who may be listening today how to take time to listen…to God and to others.Acknowledge the Need for a Listening Heart.Be Quick to Listen, Slow to Speak: James 1:19 emphasizes the importance of actively listening before responding. This applies both to hearing from God and engaging with others.  Pray for Discernment: Ask God to open your spiritual ears and grant wisdom in understanding His voice and the needs of those around you.Create Space to Hear His Voice: Regular quiet time allows you to tune out distractions and better hear God's gentle promptings (Psalm 46:10). Be still and Know that I am God.Sit in the Silence: Practice not saying the next words, at least for a while.  It's not about not talking at all, it's more about letting the thoughts of the other person be spoken without your immediate response.  No Need to Share Your Story: Sit in their story and resist the desire to tell your similar or related story.  Ex. they tell a story about their troubled teen and you immediately are triggered about your own troubled teen and want to share your story.  Keep the focus on their story.  Listen with Empathy and Compassion Seek to Understand: Try to see things from the other person's perspective. Ask clarifying questions and show genuine interest in their thoughts and feelings.Hebrews 10:24-25- And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, 25 not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.Offer Support and Encouragement: Let your words and actions reflect Christ's love and compassion 1 Thess 5:11. Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.Practice Active Listening: Avoid Clinical or Analytical Speak: Listen for God's Word in Scripture and Daily Life (Psalm 119:105)Regular Bible Study: Seek God in All Things: Put Your Faith into Action: True listening involves responding to what you hear from God and others.Be Obedient to God's Will: Seek to align your life with God's plan and purpose (Romans 12:1-2).Serve Others with Humility: Use your listening skills to minister to the needs of those around you (Galatians 5:13).Avoid Giving Unsolicited Advice:  https://rocksolidfamilies.orgSupport the show#Rocksolidfamilies, #familytherapy, #marriagecounseling, #parenting, #faithbasedcounseling, #counseling, #Strongdads, #coaching, #lifecoach, #lifecoaching, #marriagecoaching, #marriageandfamily, #control, #security, #respect, #affection, #love, #purpose, #faith, #affairs, #infidelity

Episode 117: Melissa Marquis, MS, RN & Her Book, Invisible: A Nurse-Turned-Patient's Resource to Living Well with Autoimmune Disease ABOUT MELISSA Melissa Marquis is a nurse, author and emergency management specialist. She has decades of experience in both the nursing and emergency management/public health fields. Beginning in 2008, she began noticing seemingly random symptoms, out of character for her. She quickly began her quest for answers. Utilizing her medical experience and connections, she sought care with numerous specialists. After almost 13 years, 5 rheumatologists, and numerous tests and procedures later- it was confirmed her symptoms were largely related to systemic sclerosis (scleroderma). Since then, Melissa has been a passionate advocate for patients within the autoimmune disease community, specifically scleroderma. After recognizing the lack of information available for patients who undergo years of visits and tests with limited or no answers, Melissa curated a resource book to share her experiences and lessons learned in navigating this challenging spectrum of illnesses. In her debut as an author, Melissa presents Invisible: A Nurse-Turned-Patient's Resource to Living Well with Autoimmune Disease which provides a broad-brush stroke of education about, and living with, autoimmune disease. She wisely incorporates topics such as symptoms, testing, doctor's visits, and then shifts into her experiences as the patient. CONVERSATION HIGHLIGHTS Dealing with the predictably unpredictable. Understanding triggers and taking actions for readiness. Knowing what's coming but not really preparing yourself. Melissa's Super Powers: (1) Being a Good Listener & (2) Identifying What's Needed and Stepping In. Leadership and doing the hard things. You DO have something to say! How to be a good self-advocate. The importance of faith and God in Melissa's life and journey. "Your disease is not who you are at your core as a person." How our need for therapy evolves with our life's experiences. Knowing what the right mix of self-care looks like for you. The scariest thing to face in life. The MAIN QUESTION underlying my conversation with Melissa is, If you were to write a book, what would you write about and share with others of your own life and lessons?

THURSDAY HR 4 Keeping promises? Monster Sports - Orlando City SC wins. MLB playoffs. Coach Prime News - Sean Combs case

Would you consider yourself a good listener? or are you more of a talker? Also, what even makes a "good listener"..? Whatever it is, it's something that we should all be practicing because there's nothingggggg worse than having a conversation with someone and you can just tell that they're not actually paying attention to what you're saying. Pretty sure everyone has experienced that before and we all know how that feels like. Not great! This was one of our favorite conversations this year and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did! Please let us know your thoughts about this episode! :-)

Karen and Rick's infant son Matthew died a couple of days after he was born. What do you do with all that pain? Well, it turns out you turn it into a superpower and help others discover and expand the hope you have.

Our previous episode (Is This Thing On?: Being a Good Listener to Friends & Hearing Others) made it clear how listening to yourself is key in how you show up and how you interact with others, so we explore how we've navigated listening to ourselves and how this impacts our connection to others.Hearing the Voice Within (& the Voices Around Us)Sharing stories of adolescence and discussing how childhood environments shape our ability and willingness to listen to ourselvesConsidering how intuition and introspection influence interactions with others, particularly when they exercise these practices at a different levelEmbracing “transitional characters” and their role in breaking generational cycles in part by listening to themselves through embodiment and healing (referencing We Can Do Hard Things Podcast - Breaking Generational Cycles: Embodiment & Healing Trauma with Prentis Hemphill)Navigating Belonging and the Fear of Being PerceivedReflecting on how the fear of being perceived, listening to your blind spots, and not sharing your authentic self can hinder the ability to listen to others and can impact how others see youAcknowledging that sometimes belonging or safety can take precedence over-exercising what comes from listening to oneselfAccepting that navigating relationships with people on different paths of self-listening requires empathy and also that you can't take everyone with youCelebrating Yourself Becomes a Party with OthersListening to wants and needs and placing importance on the goals and boundaries that may come from themExpressing needs and desires in relationships fosters deeper connectionsPlacing importance on celebrating oneself and sharing the celebration to uplift the communityQuestion of the Week:Do you think you're listening to yourself enough, and how does this impact how you interact with others?You can email us at tablepancakespod@gmail.com and leave us a voice memo here.

Bible Reading: Proverbs 2:1-9"Anna makes me so mad!" declared Kenzo. "She never listens to anyone else's ideas. And she always whispers in class. I wish she'd just sit still for one minute and listen to what someone else is saying!""Well, just be sure you don't let her keep you from listening when your teacher is speaking," said Mom. "Listening is your responsibility."After dinner, it was Kenzo's turn to read a selection for family devotions. He quickly read through the verses, then shut the Bible. "Okay, so can we pray now?" he asked, sitting on the edge of his chair. "I have homework to do.""In a minute," said Dad. "I have a praise to share. This morning, I read Ephesians 4:32 and realized that the Lord was telling me to forgive a man at work for something he had said about me. I prayed about it, and I trusted God to help me let go of my bitter attitude and forgive him. It was hard to do, but I feel so much better now.""How does God speak to you?" asked Kenzo. "He never speaks to me like that.""Could it be that you don't take the time to listen?" asked Dad."I listen," said Kenzo. "My teacher says I'm one of her best listeners.""Listening to God is a bit different though," Mom said. "God speaks to us through His Word, the Bible. When we read it and listen to what it says, the Holy Spirit speaks its truth to our hearts.""Just like this morning when I read that verse about forgiveness and God spoke to me through it and made me realize that I had to do what it says," Dad added. "As we listen to God's voice in the Bible and carefully think about the verses we read, the Holy Spirit helps us understand the truth He wants us to know and live it out in our lives. But we won't know what He's saying unless we listen.""Remember how you wished your friend Anna could sit still for one minute?" asked Mom. "I think God would like you to sit still and listen to Him speak." –Nance E. KeyesHow About You?Are you a good listener when other people are talking? How about when God is talking? He speaks to us through His Word, the Bible. Read it and then meditate on it by thinking about what it says. God also often speaks through pastors and teachers or through parents and friends who help us understand the truth of God's Word. Trust Him to help you be still and listen to what He has to say.Today's Key Verse:Be still, and know that I am God. (NKJV) (Psalm 46:10)Today's Key Thought:Listen to God

Many of us think we are better listeners than we really are.    But there is a reason the Bible tells us to be quick to listen and slow to speak (James 1:19). Listening is powerful and important. And the reality of human relationships is that being a GOOD listener does take some intentional effort.   It's more than just hearing the words someone is saying. It's more than just finishing a conversation. And if we are in ministry, trying to care for others and show them the love of Jesus, it is especially important that we truly are quick to listen… and that we listen well.    So, join me today for a counselor's perspective on 3 keys to being a good listener. It's not complicated, but it might take some effort and some practice.

In this talk Rev Lee discusses that “A good listener is always open to hearing new ideas. They do not feel a need to be right or defend themselves but rather a desire to better understand. A good listener begins by listening to what their heart is saying while maintaining balance with their intellectual mind.” If you found this content valuable, please support our mission by donating: https://app.easytithe.com/app/giving/agapespiritualcenter If you want more information like this, please order My New Book "The Power in You" on Kindle, a printed copy, or the audible version on Amazon today. https://www.amazon.com/Lee-Wolak/e/B09PF5BQNR...

On this episode of the FTC Podcast, Jared Wilson and Ross Ferguson discuss the art of listening. How can we make sure the people in our lives and churches feel heard? And why is that important? Included are some practical tips for becoming better listeners.

Brian Synott sits down with Mike Neglia for a discussion about bivocational ministry, therapy, addiction recovery and prison ministry. He recounts his first sermon at a hyper-charismatic youth group in county Cork, Ireland in the late 1980s and the significant growth that has taken place in his ministry since then. They speak about the surprising influence of Calvary Chapel on Brian's preaching philosophy and the value of verse-by-verse teaching as a way of growing believers AND combating heresy. They also speak about cigarettes, dyspraxia, guest-speaking, and the importance of being a good listener before you attempt to be a good speaker.

It's not merely the act of hearing words; it's a profound practice that, when employed, can transform casual conversations into profound connections.

Are you tired of struggling with communication and want to improve your skills? Effective listening can improve just about every relationship. Yet it's a skill that most of us aren't taught. You may be familiar with these common approaches we often take when we listen: Approach #1: Judging the actions of others.  Approach #2: “One-upping” the other person's problems.  Approach #3: Giving advice.  If so, we're here to share why they don't work.  More importantly, we'll suggest alternate responses that DO build connections as Maria gives us the “Cliff Notes” from her workshop “How to Listen for Real.” Let's break down the barriers to effective communication and learn the importance of listening skills together!   When we listen well, we confirm to the other person that what they're sharing is valid.  - Maria Winters   Your takeaways from the show: Understand the power of validation in strengthening communication and building lasting connections. Spot typical listening pitfalls that hinder meaningful conversations. Assess the impact of smartphone addiction on our capacity to truly listen. Discover the fascinating world of internal dialogue and the “me channel” and how they can get in the way of focused listening. Embrace the importance of cultivating and maintaining exceptional listening skills for thriving relationships. Did you have another takeaway you'd like to share?
