About
Every day we give and receive communication. But good communication doesn't always come naturally. Strengthening our skills is vital not only for those who specialize in communication but for everyone who wants to have healthy relationships, love our neighbors, and shape the world around us for good.
In Authentic Communication, educators Tim Muehlhoff and Todd Lewis offer a wealth of resources from both communication studies and the Bible. This textbook unpacks the essential elements of communication and applies them to common challenges, offering a unique look at biblical principles of communication such as loving our enemies and blessing those who insult us.
You'll find wisdom to address questions like: How can we overcome our natural biases and take someone else's perspective? When are persuasion tactics ethical-and when aren't they? How should Christians offer alternative views to the dominant voices in society?
What's new in the second edition: a new chapter on perspective taking in light of disagreement, a new chapter on communication in estranged relationships, and updated research and sources based on the past fifteen years of fresh scholarship in communication studies.
