(Sometimes there is a lot more practical advice in the Bible than we realize if we keep trying to use it as a doctrinal sourcebook for proof-texts.)
Great post, and as a teacher, I definitely find myself watching what I say. I’m really becoming more aware of some of the insincere and dishonest ways we relate to one another, and I’m praying and asking the Spirit to convict me when I engage in those destructive patterns. I’m glad you’re raising these issues, because it helps me be much more reflective about what I’m doing on a daily basis.

Grace and Peace,
Jaime
