We want to help, and we have much to explain. But lesson 11 of Love People\u2014Make Disciples, point 3, reminds us not to talk too much or tell the student everything we know about a subject. Our goal is to help him understand the information in the study publication. To do that, we need to listen as well as explain. Proverbs 20:5 helps us see why.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-combined-answer ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_003 ctj-bible-bible_001 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Proverbs 20:5<\/strong> \u2014 <em>The thoughts of a man\u2019s heart are like deep waters, But the discerning man draws them out.<\/em><br><br> A person\u2019s thoughts may lie deep within him. Discernment is needed to draw them out. If we answer for the student as soon as he becomes silent, we do not give him an opportunity to express his thoughts. That silence may be exactly the time he needs to think. So after asking a question, let us wait patiently. We do not need to rephrase it right away or add another explanation. Let the student find the answer and express it in his own words. Listening will help us know what he understands and what he needs clarified.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm01_talk_03 wp-block-paragraph\">What if he does not know the answer or says something that does not agree with the Bible? Instead of giving a long explanation, ask further questions that will help him reach the right conclusion. We can direct his attention to the part of the paragraph or Bible text that contains the answer and ask what connection he sees between that expression and the question in the study publication. Then wait again. The goal is not to make him guess the phrase we want to hear but to help him reason on what he is reading.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm01_talk_04 wp-block-paragraph\">Once he understands the idea, move on to the next point. We do not need to add every detail we know. At the next study, let us aim to focus on the study publication, ask simple questions, and wait patiently. Talking less can leave more room for the student to think and learn.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading ctj-editorial-section ctj-teachers-section\">Making Disciples<\/h2><div class=\"ctj-teachers-assignment-card\" style=\"margin:1rem 0 1.4rem;padding:1rem 1.15rem;border:1px solid #d6e2ef;border-left:4px solid #b07816;border-radius:10px;background:#f8fafc\"><p style=\"margin:0 0 .45rem\"><strong>Assignment details<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"margin:0;line-height:1.65\"><strong>Assignment:<\/strong> Making Disciples<br><strong>Duration:<\/strong> 3 min<br><strong>Lesson and point:<\/strong> Lesson 11 \u00b7 Simplicity \u00b7 point 3<br><strong>Teaching objective:<\/strong> Do not talk too much.

If the student already understands the idea, move on to the next point.<br><strong>Setting:<\/strong> At a student\u2019s sewing workshop, during the lunch break, the publisher conducts her Bible course while she tries to express a question about the organization of the congregation<br><strong>Associated Bible text:<\/strong> 1 Corinthians 14:33 \u2014 For God is a God not of disorder but of peace. As in all the congregations of the holy ones,<br><strong>Official material:<\/strong> Enjoy Life Forever! lesson 20 introduction and point 1. Demonstrate how not to apply Enjoy Life Forever! lesson 11 point 3.<\/p><\/div><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_001 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Should I leave the book here, or do you need this space for the fabrics?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_002 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> It is fine here. I already put away what I was using. I was having trouble finding some scissors; when someone moves things around, I spend more time looking for them than working.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_003 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> That fits in well with lesson 20. The introduction discusses order and how the Christian congregation is organized. It also considers how we can contribute to making everything work well. For example, why do you think organization is needed when several people do something together?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_004 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Well, I suppose it depends on&#8230;<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_005 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> On each person knowing what to do, of course. Because if everyone does things his own way, it is difficult to coordinate. Right here, you need to have one place for cutting, another for storing materials, and to know what work you still have to do. Order prevents confusion. But it is not simply a matter of putting objects in their places; it also affects how we cooperate with other people.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_006 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Yes, although I was thinking about something else. Being organized is good, but sometimes the person who is organizing does not let others speak.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_007 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> I understand why that concerns you. The introduction connects organization with one of Jehovah\u2019s qualities. To see which one, I am going to read the text it mentions, 1 Corinthians 14:33. Listen to how it describes God.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-dialogue-scripture ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_008 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> 1 Corinthians 14:33 \u2014 For God is a God not of disorder but of peace. As in all the congregations of the holy ones, What does this teach us about Jehovah? It teaches us that he loves order and is a God of peace. That is why we expect his people to be organized. Notice the connection: we are not talking about organizing things simply for the sake of having them organized, but about making everything work well and promoting peace.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_010 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> I understand that. What I wanted to ask you is whether being organized means that everyone has to remain quiet and listen.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_011 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Look at the picture in the lesson. There is a brother asking a question, and several attendees are raising their hands to comment. What catches your attention? They want to participate. And by raising their hands, they can do so in an orderly way. So the picture does not show people who are merely sitting without taking part.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_012 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Yes, I can see the raised hands. I wanted to know&#8230;<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_013 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Also, think about what would happen if everyone spoke at the same time. It would be difficult to understand what they were saying, even if each person had something interesting to contribute. That is why participating and maintaining order are not opposites. It is like when you receive several orders: you can handle them all, but you need to organize yourself so you do not confuse what each customer is asking for.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_014 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> I understand the matter of order now. Can we continue? I would like to get to the question about how the congregation is organized before I go back to work.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-1 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> I also need to listen to the end when dealing with orders. Sometimes a customer takes a long time to explain what alteration she wants. My question is whether there is room for those of us who need more time to express ourselves.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-2 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Of course. Needing time does not mean that a person has nothing to contribute. Think of a customer who asks you to shorten a sleeve but has not yet explained by how much. Would it be enough to know that she wants it shortened? No, because you could cut off too much fabric. First you need to understand what she is asking for. With people, too, it is important to understand what they mean, not merely that they speak in turn. And this example has another detail: listening carefully can prevent a misunderstanding that would later need to be corrected.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_015 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Yes, that is the next question. But first let me explain a little more about the difference between keeping things orderly and cooperating in an orderly way. That will make the introduction clear to you when we move on to point one.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading ctj-editorial-section ctj-teachers-section\">Making Disciples<\/h2><div class=\"ctj-teachers-assignment-card\" style=\"margin:1rem 0 1.4rem;padding:1rem 1.15rem;border:1px solid #d6e2ef;border-left:4px solid #b07816;border-radius:10px;background:#f8fafc\"><p style=\"margin:0 0 .45rem\"><strong>Assignment details<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"margin:0;line-height:1.65\"><strong>Assignment:<\/strong> Making Disciples<br><strong>Duration:<\/strong> 3 min<br><strong>Lesson and point:<\/strong> Lesson 11 \u00b7 Simplicity \u00b7 point 3<br><strong>Teaching objective:<\/strong> Do not talk too much.

Ask him more questions so that he can reach the right conclusion. If the student already understands the idea, move on to the next point.<br><strong>Setting:<\/strong> At a table on the student\u2019s patio, the publisher continues his Bible course while they review questions he wrote down about the meetings<br><strong>Associated Bible text:<\/strong> John 16:12 \u2014 \u201cI still have many things to say to you, but you are not able to bear them now.<br><strong>Official material:<\/strong> Enjoy Life Forever! lesson 20 points 2, 3 (Love People\u2014Make Disciples lesson 11 point 3).<\/p><\/div><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s03_u001 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Were you able to find the page where you wrote down your question?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s03_u002 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Yes, here it is. I have so many notes that afterward I cannot find anything. I wanted to ask you about the brother who asks the questions at the meeting. Is he checking how much each person knows? Because I still would not dare to answer.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s03_u003 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Are you worried that he might ask you a question without your wanting to participate?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s03_u004 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Exactly. In some classes they suddenly ask you a question to see whether you are paying attention. And even if I have understood something, when I am put in that situation my mind goes blank.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s03_u005 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> I understand. Knowing something is not the same as explaining it in front of others. Look at the picture in our lesson. What are several of the attendees doing?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s03_u006 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> They are raising their hands. Well, that seems to show that they want to answer, not that they were chosen unexpectedly. I had not noticed that detail.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s03_u007 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Yes. Now, point 2 asks what function the elders fulfill. Thinking about this scene, can asking questions serve a purpose besides testing knowledge?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s03_u008 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> It can help us think. That happens to me here: sometimes I think I understand what I read, but when I try to explain it to you, I discover which part is not clear to me. Although you could also explain it to me directly and we would finish sooner.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s03_u009 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> We might finish sooner. But would it help you if I explained everything I know all at once?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s03_u010 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> It depends. I want answers, of course, but if there are too many new things, I mix them up later. Like these notes: I wrote them down quickly, and now I do not even know why I wrote some of them.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s03_u011 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> What you say reminds me of how Jesus took his disciples\u2019 abilities into account when teaching them. I am going to read John 16:12; notice why he did not explain everything to them at that time. There is a passage that fits this situation very well. Would you like to read John 16:12?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-dialogue-scripture ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s03_u012 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> John 16:12 \u2014 \u201cI still have many things to say to you, but you are not able to bear them now. According to these words, was the problem that Jesus did not have anything else to teach them?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s03_u014 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> No, he had more to say. But they could not take it all in then. That reassures me, although I would not want my questions to remain unanswered either.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s03_u015 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Of course, your questions matter. How about distinguishing the ones that relate to the point we are studying from those we can return to later?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s03_u016 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> That sounds good, as long as we write them down. That way I can concentrate on one thing without worrying that we will forget the rest.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s03_u017 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> All right. Returning to the picture, how can listening both to the question and to the answers help you?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s03_u018 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> I can try to answer mentally and compare it with what I understood. I do not have to be preparing a comment the whole time. For now I prefer to listen; perhaps later I will feel ready to raise my hand.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-1 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Listening can help you a lot. And if someone answers using words different from the ones you had thought of, how could you find out whether you understood the idea? We do not always use the same expressions to explain something.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-2 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> That is difficult for me. If my answer does not resemble the one I hear, I immediately think I was wrong. In class I tried to remember the wording in the book, because that made me feel more confident when answering.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-3 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Let us use what we have just read. If you said that Jesus took into account how much his disciples could learn at that time, would you be explaining the idea of the text or changing it?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-4 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> I would be explaining it in my own words. It would be different if I said that Jesus did not want to teach them anything else. That would not fit what we read, because he still had much to tell them.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-5 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Exactly. So instead of focusing only on whether your answer sounds the same as someone else\u2019s, what could you check?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-6 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Whether it expresses what the text teaches. That way I can recognize when I have understood and when I need to ask a question. I would like to learn to do that without worrying so much about repeating the exact words.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s03_u019 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> All right. That question is clearer now. Let us move on to point 3 and see what question it raises.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading ctj-editorial-section ctj-teachers-section\">Making Disciples<\/h2><div class=\"ctj-teachers-assignment-card\" style=\"margin:1rem 0 1.4rem;padding:1rem 1.15rem;border:1px solid #d6e2ef;border-left:4px solid #b07816;border-radius:10px;background:#f8fafc\"><p style=\"margin:0 0 .45rem\"><strong>Assignment details<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"margin:0;line-height:1.65\"><strong>Assignment:<\/strong> Making Disciples<br><strong>Duration:<\/strong> 4 min<br><strong>Lesson and point:<\/strong> Lesson 11 \u00b7 Simplicity \u00b7 point 3<br><strong>Teaching objective:<\/strong> Do not talk too much.

Ask him more questions so that he can reach the right conclusion.

For my yoke is kindly, and my load is light.\u201d<br><strong>Official material:<\/strong> Enjoy Life Forever! lesson 20 point 4 (Love People\u2014Make Disciples lesson 11 point 3).<\/p><\/div><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u01 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Do you want us to put the books on this side and leave the pieces where they are?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u02 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Yes, that would be better. I have been working on this bookcase for quite a while. My brother-in-law tried to explain over the phone how to assemble it, but he gave me so many instructions in a row that I ended up even more confused. I will leave it for later.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u03 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Sometimes we need to take things one step at a time. Would you like to continue with point 4 of lesson 20, or would you rather leave the study for another time?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u04 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> No, let us continue. It will be good to change activities. It says here that Jesus is a leader who offers relief. I find that a little difficult to understand.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u05 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> What part is difficult for you to understand?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u06 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> That following someone can bring relief. Normally, when someone leads, he tells you what you have to do. I already have schedules, orders, and things left to do. If I add more obligations, I do not see where the rest comes in.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u07 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> I understand; you do not want to feel more pressure. Let us see how Jesus describes his way of leading. I am going to read Matthew 11:28-30; notice what he is like and what he offers those who approach him.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-dialogue-scripture ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u08 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Matthew 11:28-30 \u2014 Come to me, all you who are toiling and loaded down, and I will refresh you. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am mild-tempered and lowly in heart, and you will find refreshment for yourselves. For my yoke is kindly, and my load is light.\u201d Thinking about what you said regarding obligations, do you understand Jesus to be promising a life with nothing to do?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u10 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> At first I almost understood it that way, as if approaching him would make whatever troubles you disappear. But then he speaks about a yoke and a load. So it cannot mean that you would no longer have responsibilities.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u11 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Exactly. And according to what we just read, what is the one who invites you to learn from him like?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u12 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> He is mild-tempered and humble. I suppose that changes things. Even if someone is right to correct you, if he talks to you as if you were stupid, you lose the desire to keep listening.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u13 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> What would it be like for you to learn with someone who has those qualities of Jesus?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u14 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Easier. I could ask questions without worrying that he would get angry. But one thing is for the teacher to be kind, and another is for what he asks you to do to be easy. That still makes me hesitate.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u15 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Those are two different things, yes. Look again at the last verse. Besides explaining what he is like, what does it say about the load he places on us?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u16 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> That it is light. So he not only promises to treat people kindly; he also says that what he asks can be carried. I had not connected those two ideas.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u17 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> That helps us understand the title of the point. Can you think of a difference between receiving help to do something and feeling that someone is simply demanding things from you?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u18 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> With the bookcase, for example: it is not the same for someone to say that I should have finished already as it is to have someone beside me who teaches me calmly. The work is still there, but I do not feel as overwhelmed.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u19 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Your example clearly distinguishes the two things. Jesus invites us to learn from him; he does not promise that all work will disappear. How would you answer your question about following a leader now?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u20 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> I would say that it depends on the leader. I was thinking of someone who only orders people around and demands more. Jesus describes himself differently. Following him involves doing things, but it does not have to be the kind of pressure I imagined.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u21 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Yes, that is the difference. Of his qualities, which one encourages you most to continue learning from him?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u22 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> That he is mild-tempered. I find it difficult to ask questions when I do not understand something. Sometimes I say yes out of embarrassment and then continue with the same question. Knowing that he is like that gives me confidence.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u23 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> You can say so here when something is not clear to you, as you have done now. We do not have to rush. Do you have any remaining question about this point?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u24 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Not about this idea. I still want to learn more about what Jesus teaches, but now I understand why following him can bring relief and is not simply another obligation. We can continue.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-1 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Yes, one thing: What if I try to learn from Jesus but find it difficult to change the way I react? For example, when I am tired, I sometimes answer rudely at home. I am worried that I will become discouraged if I do it again after studying.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-2 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> I understand. But when Jesus invites us to learn from him, do you think that means we should already know how to do everything, or that we need him to teach us?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-3 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> That we need to learn. So if I answer rudely one day, I should not think that studying is of no use to me. I could acknowledge it, apologize, and keep striving to speak more calmly.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-4 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Exactly. Learning involves putting into practice what you are coming to understand, not merely understanding it. You have identified a specific situation in which you want to do that. Do you have any other question about this idea?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-smm04_u25 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Very good. Let us move on to the next point.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Assignments and examples for Apply Yourself to the Field Ministry for the week of January 25-31,
