About this listen

This is the official weekly podcast of Westside Community Church in Beaverton, Oregon. We’re made up of a variety of people who like to keep it real, don’t take themselves too seriously and who want to get the most out of life. At Westside, we welcome people from all walks of life – in fact, there are NO PERFECT PEOPLE ALLOWED! We strive to be a "safe place to investigate faith" so people can come as they are and be themselves while they explore who Jesus is, find friends and make a difference.

We post content here that is practical, helpful, and relevant to real life. We hope you'll find the inspiration, motivation and help to grow.

  • Why You Communicate Better at Work Than at Home
    Feb 18 2026

    Send a text

    Ever notice you can communicate like a pro at work, but at home it falls apart fast? In this replay episode, Gabe sits down with Matt Castile to talk about what actually lowers tension, builds trust, and turns conflict into connection. If you want to stop arguing and start communicating, this is for you.


    Discover

    • Why your communication changes when you walk into your home
    • Introvert vs extrovert conflict, and how to stop misreading each other
    • The game-changing principle: “Quick to listen, slow to speak” (James 1:19)
    • How to communicate under pressure without saying what you’ll regret
    • Why “I statements” can prevent so much damage in relationships
    • Simple ways to build trust and vulnerability again


    Reflection

    Healthy communication isn’t about winning the argument. It’s about loving the person more than you love your natural style, your defense mechanisms, or your emotional reactions. When you choose to listen deeply, you don’t just change the conversation — you change the relationship.


    Key Takeaways

    • Your skill doesn’t disappear at home, but your triggers show up more
    • Listening deeply is one of the fastest paths to trust
    • Self-control matters more than your communication “type”
    • Under pressure, pause before you speak so you don’t do damage
    • Use “I feel…” instead of throwing barbs and assumptions


    Question for you to think about

    Where do you need to listen deeply this week — before you speak, defend, or react?
