Laying out eleven key principles for loving conversation, Pastor Tim Shorey guides us to a memorable, scriptural approach to communication that can transform our relationships.

Do you know who you're talking to? All human beings are made in the image of God . . . but you wouldn't always be able to tell by how we talk to them. And when it comes to listening, we're even worse! The result? Hurt, misunderstandings, frustration, division, and sometimes all-out war.

Scripture says that human beings aren't worms or weasels but rather wonders who are worthy of our time and respect. From that truth, we can draw important guidelines that will transform our conversations, relationships, and lives together. Pastor Tim Shorey blends the marvelous with the mundane, laying out a COMMUNICATE lifestyle built on eleven practical decisions we need to make when we converse. Whether you're trying to repair a relationship, interact on social media, talk to your teen, or understand someone whose beliefs differ wildly from your own, there is hope!

“There are Christian resources on communication in human relationships that tell the reader lots of stories but fail to connect these practical anecdotes, challenges, and instructions to biblical truths that transform the heart. On the other hand, there are resources that tell the reader eternal truths about conducting relationships as God intended but that leave the reader with little in the way of procedural knowledge—with no practical answers to “How do I do that?” Respect the Image helps us all precisely because Tim aims to make every truth transformative and every story connect to the truth.”

From the foreword, Pastor, Author The Ology: Ancient Truths Ever New

“Tim Shorey reminds us of the importance of being engaged listeners who seek authenticity and love genuinely as a pathway to peace with our neighbors. With biblical insight and personal transparency, Tim provides effective, practical steps to pursuing peace with those with whom we might disagree. Requiring truth-telling and vulnerability, while recognizing the full humanity of others, and embracing both our uniqueness as well as our unity in Jesus Christ as an image of the gospel, Respect the Image is a focused and helpful plea for greater listening and learning in all our relationships.”
