Lesson 5: Question #3

Which of the following did this lesson NOT teach about handling rabbit trails?


Graciously interrupt them and thank them for sharing, then repeat the question and make sure someone else answers.

The most important thing to remember is this: when a person is on a rabbit trail, listen and make them feel welcome, wanted, respected, and valued. Be gracious with your words.

Say something like, “Thank you. It’s good to consider things we experience in our lives, but how can we really focus on this question?“

In front of the rest of the group, tell them, “That is a rabbit trail, and it is wasting our time and causing us to lose focus on the question. Please don’t do that!”
