Description

In this episode of Overcoming Gracefully the Art of Forgiveness, we dive deep into the powerful topic of slander and its impact on our lives and relationships. Guided by key scriptures, we explore how harmful words can damage not only others but also our spiritual well-being.


Join us as we discuss the following verses:



  • Proverbs 10:18 (ESV): "The one who conceals hatred has lying lips, and whoever utters slander is a fool."



  • Psalm 101:5 (NIV): "Whoever slanders their neighbor in secret, I will put to silence; whoever has haughty eyes and a proud heart, I will not tolerate."



  • James 4:11 (ESV): "Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge."



  • 1 Peter 2:1 (NIV): "Therefore, rid yourselves of all malice and all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander of every kind."




We’ll uncover the wisdom these verses offer on guarding our tongues and living with integrity. We'll share practical tips on how to resist the temptation to speak negatively about others and how to cultivate a heart of kindness, truth, and love.
