Ep. 24 - Rumor Has It

Scott discusses the real destructive force of rumors and gossip within a school and the responsibility each of us carry to rise above the temptation to join in.    Quotes: Night Rider - "Rumors in the air like a thief in the night. Taking more than their share. Taking more than their right. Rumors in the air like a thief in the night." Lawrence Lovasik - "Judging their character. Condemning their soul. It is just as cowardly to judge an absent person as it is wicked to strike a defenseless one. Only the ignorant and narrow-minded gossip, for they speak of persons instead of things."   Proverbs 26:20-21 - "Without wood a fire goes out; without a gossip a quarrel dies down. As charcoal to embers and as wood to fire, so is a quarrelsome person for kindling strife."    Coaching Question: Did I do my best to stop gossip and rumors today?   __ Educators Fellowship is a non-profit organization that encourages educators in their calling and in their faith.  www.Educatorsamonguspodcast.com www.educatorsamongus.com https://www.edfellowship.org/   Sign up for weekly encouragement messages here   Buy the book, Love'em and Lead'em, here   https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottebarron/ https://www.facebook.com/SchoolGrowth/ https://twitter.com/schoolgrowth https://www.linkedin.com/company/school-growth
