How people choose to express themselvesto frame their deepest longings and thoughtseither expands or shrinks the deep realities of mind, body, and human community. Kirk Livingston, drawing upon education in philosophy and theology and experience in the commercial world of copywriting, investigates how words exercise power to make things happen in this world and how those emerging conversations connect people to one another and bind them to God. As the title hints, ListenTalk ends chapters with questions crafted to encourage conversation among people who share the journey of reading this work together. Frequent and effective section headings provide ample markers along the way, so that readers may keep themselves oriented to the books presentation. To support deeper reflection, ListenTalk also suggests further reading and offers pertinent documentation and a topical index.

They can become tools to achieve reunion both among people who too often simply pass by one another in the midst of busy days and between people and the God who made them to enter into the divine conversation.
