TESTIMONIALS, FEEDBACK & COMMENTS ::
"Jonathan Sherman teaches with such insightfulness and depth on the interworkings of human emotions and relationships. His therapy has proven invaluable to me, and is the true hope for anyone who has ever loved another and wondered, 'What's wrong with you? What's wrong with me? And why aren't we working?'"

Forever thankful,

10 "Everything!" "Wi will be checking out more about depression." --
10 "Jonathan's openness. I enjoyed the presentation. It made me more aware and okay to alk about 'failings,' etc." "I will talk more about my feelings." --
10 "We in the Church don't express our shortcomings/faults eetc. with one another and many never seek help for what they consider 'weakness.' I believe you may have opened doors today for some and validated others who have needs and have never thought to share with anyone. Thank you!" "Continue to appreciate the world around me. 'LEAVES!'" --
10 "Your willingness to be led by the Spirit." "I am good enough, because God said so." --
10 "The song parts with how you led up to them." "1. One thing at a time. 2. Say 'No' when need to. Notice how I marked two things!" "It's all good!"
10 "Jonathan is just a wonderful speaker! Very inspiring. I appreciate his family examples and pointing out his own faults rather than being the unapproachable 'perfect expert." "Love is the whole point." "It was all great."
10 "Exhilarating! In order of what I enjoyed most: The Presenter #1; The Subject #2; The Content #3." "I will read and re-read these handouts and then try to apply as much as possible of the good ideas that I need." "Not a thing! You even surpass Jon Bytheway! You are great!"
10 "Thank you for coordinating agency and the love of Christ with stress management and taking care of ourselves emotionally." "I plan to talk to my husband about mastering strong emotion &Mac173; eliminating strong emotion. I will also choose ONE stress reduction technique to introduce to my life." --
10 "The discussion on depression." "Get up early to walk." --
10 "All of it, but particularly liked the slides of pictures of Christ accompanied by the song You Needed Me by Anne Murray as well as the Team Hoyt I Can Only Imagine video (which I had seen before but really needed to see again). Thank you!" "To say 'No' when I need to." --
10 "We all need to hear and connect with these ideas. Thank you. I AM a child of God!" -- "None."

9 "Helping to understand the male thought patterns and that male/female thought pattersn are different and that no 'way' is the 'right' way. Alos, trying to maintain focus in our daily lives. Makin g sure not to allow 'stress' to affect, but to help us remember why we have stress. How to become effective in dealing with stress." "Trying to understand the difference between our thought patterns and how to look outside the box of what both of use are hearing and understanding." --
9 "Your straight-forward and direct approach to all the subjects." "Living in the moment." "Using the term 'Judas Priest.'"
9 "You didn't talk 'down' to us. I loved the way you used music!" "I'm going to recognize and let go of the Lies and recognize my birth right!" --
9 "The suggestions/lists of things I can try. I feel like I've been hitting my head against the wall--nowhere to go! This gave me some new avenues to try. Thanks for the boost in self-esteem--it was much needed!" "To 'know self' and to 'know my spouse' as you taught us." --
8 "I like that you gave us so much to think about and that it was Gospel-based." "I'm going to start dealing with/managing my stress better." "Nothing!"
