Show Notes
This week we continue our series on E.Q. or Emotional Intelligence. I am interviewing my friend Dr. Daryl Thompson, District Superintendent of the Northern Plains District of the Evangelical Free Church in America. Daryl has a wonderful grasp on E.Q. and its impact on both personal relationships and life in the Church. In this episode, we discuss what E.Q. is and why it’s important to consider it — relational health — when appointing people to ministry positions in the church. In this episode, we talk about the critical impact of E.Q. on a person’s relationships.
