Notes:

  • How do you know you have the right person:
    1. Internal sense of mutual commitment
      1. Do you want to work through problems - a.k.a communication, loyalty, transparency?!
        1. Song of Songs 8:6
        2. Can you endure pain - Navy Seal example of repetitive pain? Can one endure it in a relationship in the evaluation phase?
    2. The skill of communication
      1. Proverbs 12:18
        1. How do you speak when within turmoil?
    3. Survive a moment of confession
      1. Proverbs 28:13
      2. If you can confess, but still extend mercy, that will knit both of you in a relationship so deep
    4. You need a community
      1. Proverbs 11:14
  • Proverbs 10:1
    • Do you as a man have chemistry and charisma?

    • Honor by valuing what they value.
      • How?
        • Through words and wealth (security)

    • Just like one of J.P.B's rules for life
  • See the younger people below you as an opportunity - you are multiplying your impact upon the lives of the next generation
  • "One generations hindsight is another generations foresight."
