Discussion Questions
-
Dr. Crabb talks about our tendency to keep relationships shallow using the image of “not turning our chairs toward one another.” Why is it so difficult for us to “turn our chairs”? In other words, why are we reluctant to let anyone really know us? As you think about your answer, consider these possible reasons: Don’t have time. Don’t want to get involved. Don’t care. Feel inadequate and awkward. Don’t know how to form deeper relationships. Not culturally acceptable. Explain several possible reasons (using your own or from the list above) and then give an example from your experience that demonstrates which reason most often keeps you from turning your chair towards others.
-
It is hard for me personally to develop a deeper relationship with others because I am afraid that people won’t accept me if they know who I am, or they are too busy meddling their own live that I will be laid bare after exposing myself. The other reason is that there is this demand for me to perform and be the role model for others, and failure in doing so will bring rejection from them to me.
-
I Think it’s more difficult as you get older because you’ve been hurt by people. People that were supposed to be your friends and that you got close to all need to be betrayed. I find this in other people as well. They are wary and not sure about sharing anything less than superficial things about themselves. I teach Christian exercise courses in the best way I have found is that I prayer for each of my students. If God has some thing he wants me to help them with it usually comes to the surface and I can listen and get an idea where they’re coming from. I ask questions letting them know I have an interest in them. Basically try to treat them how I would like people to treat me.
