5 Steps to Blossoming People

How to Blossom People

5 Steps To Blossoming People

A number of years ago, I took a class at my church that was for all of the Sunday School Teachers. It was how to teach anything to anyone based around a book by Bruce Wilkinson called The 7 Laws of the Learner: How To Teach Almost Anything to Practically Anyone. He is such a fine Bible Teacher and writer! You may have read his books The Prayer of Jabez or Secrets of the Vine.

Probably my favorite Chapter was on how to blossom people. Bruce shares 5 steps in his book. I’ve consciously thought about them and have seen what a huge impact they make!

For example, I had a teenage guitar student that wasn’t practicing. I caught him doing something well, and went through the 5 steps. The following week he came back prepared to learn. It was like night and day. People need to know that you  care and that you believe in them.

Here are the 5 Steps

  1. Notice when people do good things.
  2. Tell them what they did.
  3. Tell them how you feel about what they did. (You were proud, excited, etc.)
  4. Take it out to the future. Paint a picture of what they are becoming.
  5. Seal it with a hug, a touch, or even a nod. Whatever is appropriate.

The first step just involves being aware of when someone does something that is helpful or when they have a breakthrough. An example for teachers would be to notice when a student plays something well.

Step two is to tell them what they did. For example, “Your chord changes are getting much faster!”

Step three is to tell them how that makes you feel. “I’m so proud of how you are progressing.”

Step four is to give them a future vision. “I bet you’ll be a fine worship leader some day!”

Step five is to end with a hug, touch, or big smile. What ever is appropriate.

Try blossoming the people around you today!

FB Worship Guitar for Kids Contest

September 16, 2013 By admin 2 Comments

Worship Guitar Class for KidsWe’re running another Facebook Contest. This one is for the ‘JW Worship Guitar Class for Kids’ book and DVD. The lessons are geared towards kids from the age of 5 to around 9. For more information about what is inside the program, you can check out the Worship Guitar Class for Kids description. There is also a video on that page with the first lesson.

The book includes 9 lessons with a 2 1/2 hour DVD. The lessons are filmed with a 7 year old so the kids can watch a peer learn to play the guitar at the same time.

The Giveaway

Here is a brief video about the Facebook Giveaway. The contest is at our Facebook Fanpage – Facebook.com/worshipguitarclass

 

By the way, the picture showing ‘240 points’ in the video above was my preview of what it would look like and not an actual contestant.

Kids Guitar Lessons: How To Use Both Programs

Guitar Lessons for KidsThere are so many wonderful benefits for both Kids and Adults when they learn a musical instrument! It even helps in developing their brains. Grade can improve and it can even helps their self-esteem. God created music and it can be used as a wonderful tool to bring Him praise!

We have 2 courses for little kids, ages 5 – 9. They are Kids Guitar Lessons and Worship Guitar Class for Kids. The original course was Kids Guitar Lessons. I was told by a worship Pastor that it moved a little too fast for his class of 7 years. We made a new course, ‘Jean Welles Worship Guitar Class for Kids’, and were going to retire the first one, but several parents told us that their kids loved playing the songs.

Both courses are available, and there is an option to purchase them together. The only song in common is ‘This Little Light Of Mine.’ Here is how I’d suggest using them together.
