No crosstalk, please

Notes from "Running a Courage Meeting."

Models of meetings

- Courage is not a teacher's meeting. We are trying to figure out how to heal a very difficult pain. "Please do not be a teacher when you are running a meeting."

- Courage is not a psychotherapetic meeting. "Stay away from that. No crosstalk. I emphasize, please, do not allow crosstalk."

- Courage is like AA.

• No interruptions.
• No politics.
• No theology.
• No challenges.
• Just let them talk.
• Focus on interior chastity (first goal of Courage/Encourage).
• The answers are in each person at the meeting.
• The leader facilitates conversation about the development of interior chastity.
