Developing Discernment: When Do I Give People the Benefit of the Doubt?
from The Mentor's Table
Send us Fan MailWe are in a season of unprecedented disclosure, which means we have to have godly discernment to know what to do with all these new voices and pieces of information. For too long, we've elevated giving people "the benefit of the doubt" to a spiritual gift of sorts, but you won't find that in the Bible. Instead, we find a clear biblical standard for knowing when enough is enough. It's not showing biblical love to just blindly keep giving people the benefit of the doubt with no end. In Genesis 31, we find our example for discerning how to know when enough is enough.
