Dealing with Toxic People Biblically

There are certain behaviours that are hard to explain, not because they’re subtle, but because they’re confusing. You can feel that something isn’t right, but without the language, it’s easy to question yourself instead of what you’re experiencing.In this episode, we step back from modern psychological terms and look at what the Bible already says about these patterns. 2 Timothy describes traits like pride, lack of empathy, manipulation, and self-centeredness — patterns that show up in real-life relationships, families, and environments.But how are we meant to respond?We also look at Gospel of Matthew 18, which outlines a process for handling conflict — one that includes accountability, but also recognises that not everyone is willing to change.This episode is about clarity, discernment, and learning how to respond when something doesn’t feel right.📘 If you want to go deeper, join me on substack.👉 https://substack.com/@belovedwithcherise#faithandhealing #christianpodcast #discernment #emotionalhealth #healingjourney #toxicrelationships #selfawareness #boundaries #christianhealing Background video by Freepik
