10 Things I’ve Learned in the Art of Loving People, by Tori Townley

One of my favs texted me yesterday asking for any outreach tips I had. Got me thinking about some of the things I've learned from others along the way. Maybe these will help you, too, tomorrow on #SERVEday18 and on your lifelong journey through the art of loving people.

1: The Magic of A Smile JP Brumfield taught me this one when I was probably 14. Outreach may start off a little awkward sometimes. I mean we are doing a lot of talking with total strangers. AWK! But truly I can say - smiling takes at least 90% of the edge off and makes everyone around you feel comfortable. Including yourself.

2: Go Slow As the Good Sammy would probably tell us - "Interruptions" are usually your divine appointment in disguise. So don't rush. Move slow. Embrace people. I mean, what's is serving if not loving the people right in front of us?

3: Flow at Eye Level

My friend Holly, the Activity Director at an assisted living home, taught me this in high school. She showed me that kneeling beside a nursing home resident who is in a wheelchair makes all the difference in the world on how your friendship begins. Towering over someone can be intimidating, but when you're eye level it communicates friendship and servanthood. (This goes for anyone you're serving. Kneeling by someone in a wheelchair, sitting beside someone on a park bench, bending down when talking to kiddos.) It's crazy the difference it makes. Try it!

4: The Only Label is FRIEND I learned this from Dr Joe and Kelli Carson at the Memphis Dream Center.... Avoid labeling people based on their circumstances. (They are *people* first, so rather than calling them "homeless people" keep in mind that while they may happen to be "experiencing homelessness" ultimately, they are simply our FRIENDS. Calling someone a friend instills dignity and speaks value over them.

My girl Jenna Kennedy at The Dream Center taught me these next two:

5: "Hello, My Name Is _____________"

Share your name before asking theirs (Sharing a piece of yourself first is a small gesture to build trust)

6: Selfie is Bestie Ask permission before taking photos of someone. (Asking, "May I take a photo with you" after getting to know them a little is best.)

7: Be Love!, A Bob Goff - ism Don't feel the need to preach at people. Just "be love". Jesus can and will make Himself known. Follow His lead.

8: Please Do Touch

...said no one in 2018 ever! But yeah. That's what I'm saying. And I bet Mother Teresa would, too. *** Now, be overly appropriate and smart about it.*** But don't be afraid to high five, handshake, and with permission - HUG! And always make eye contact. Keep in mind that embrace is healing. I've met so many people who haven't been hugged or patted on the back or embraced in anyway in years. And it has taken a toll on them. But I also have a friend who was suffering from severe mental illness. He's started to be consistently be embraced by our team with hugs and high fives ...and over several months ... We've seen a crazy difference in him and I truly believe he is healing. Just from being treated not as a freak on the street but as a valuable human that we love and embrace.

9: Crazy Times, Best Times Let's be real, SERVEday and chaos are inseparable. But if you embrace it, it will be the funnest most glorious kind of chaos you've ever played in!

10 - "...And don't forget to thank Him" One of the verses my Dad would say with me when I was little ended with that phrase. At the end of SERVEday, don't forget to thank Jesus for the jewels He sent your way. Thank Him in prayer, thank Him by telling the stories, thank Him by shouting from the rooftops just how good He is, and thank Him by trusting Him to continue the work in people's lives that you were invited to be in on. He is such a beautiful Father.

What are some of your favorite brushes in art of loving people?
