Wow!!

What an absolutely deep and meaningful presentation. Thank you for sharing so sincerely Mr. Demme and to you too Dianne.

My children and I have been using MUS since day one and tonight, as I watched the recording, I realised "Oh my goodness! I have just taken him for granted, that here is this man teaching my children, yet he has emotions and relationships just like everybody else." I thank you for allowing me to know you better and won't feel as silly talking to you on your instructional DVDs anymore, lol.

Building Faith Families –> I'm heading over there now!

God bless you Mr. Demme!!

Tisha Richardson says

Thank you very much. I see where I can use this in my family and my life.

Funny thing, I am teaching a discussion course in my home school group. I will be using many of the points you raised to teach our youth (middle schoolers) how to communicate with each other ESPECIALLY when they disagree.

Again, thank you.
