A man’s spirit will endure sickness, but a crushed spirit who can bear? An intelligent heart acquires knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge. A man’s gift makes room for him and brings him before the great. The one who states his case first seems right, until the other comes and examines him. The lot puts an end to quarrels and decides between powerful contenders. A brother offended is more unyielding than a strong city, and quarreling is like the bars of a castle. From the fruit of a man’s mouth his stomach is satisfied; he is satisfied by the yield of his lips. Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits. He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the LORD. The poor use entreaties, but the rich answer roughly. A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

As faith-filled believers, we have the responsibility to not allow ignorance, defensiveness, or discomfort to prevent us from engaging in challenging conversations. Let’s look at issues fragmenting the church and recognize how we can become advocators of healthy discourse while also building more meaningful relationships. My hope is for God’s Word to inform and shape your approach of others as you seek to understand and speak the truth in love.
