Chris Coursey shares that God is glad to be with us! If we truly know that, it transforms not only us as individuals but all of our interactions with others. Those interactions are strengthened when we use the 19 relational skills that should be learned, but often aren't, during infancy. Even if we missed that early learning opportunity, there is much hope. We can form new habits when we practice these skills throughout our life.
