This is Holy Family School of Faith.

Welcome to our Rosary Meditations.

The world needs a movement of families and friends who live friendship, good conversation,

and pray the Rosary together.

Yesterday I gave you the definition of a good conversation and the first three principles to have one.

To recognize the dignity of the person with whom you speak that forcing our ideas even if

we're right never works a man convinced against his will is of the same

opinion still.

Third, we must seek first to know and understand.

Now today we give the next five principles.

So let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Let's call to mind all those we've promised to pray for.

In our first decade we reflect on the fourth principle of good conversation.

Give people, freedom, and thinking. the fourth principle of good conversation.

Give people freedom and thinking.

You can't make people think the way you think.

Not even God can do that because God gave us freedom and it's not our job to fix people.

That's God's responsibility. So we must give people freedom and autonomy and thinking.

Don't put undue pressure upon yourself and think that you have to correct people immediately

if they spout some heresy or untruths.

And don't fall into the fear that if you don't correct them immediately,

somehow you've been unfaithful to God or responsible for making the person in front of you go to hell.
