🎙️Season 2, Episode 3c: When do you stop helping someone?

🎙️ Crumb Confessional — Season 2, Episode 3cTitle: When do you stop helping someone?Description:Just left the Northern Kentucky Emergency Shelter after another round of homeless outreach. I’ve been talking with Pastor Vince and wrestling with the same tension I’ve had with Mansaray—when do you stop helping someone? When do you walk away? I’ve seen this in coaching, in ministry, in life: if you want it more than they do, what’s your biblical obligation? I know Jesus said to forgive 77 times, but He also said not to cast your pearls before swine. Where’s the line? That’s what I’m asking today.I talk about:An update on Mansaray and my plan to block himLessons from talking to Pastor Vince and SaidThe tension between mercy, wisdom, and boundariesThe weariness of pouring into someone who won’t drinkBiblical questions I want answered—where’s the red line?Whether fruitlessness or resistance warrants stepping back💡 Highlights & Timestamps:00:00 – Leaving the shelter, still wrestling01:35 – “How do you biblically know when to stop helping someone?”03:10 – Forgiveness vs. boundaries: are they at odds?04:30 – The line between pouring out in love and wasting energy05:50 – “I’ve never asked ChatGPT this with Scripture in mind…”📖 Scriptures Referenced:Matthew 18:22 – “Forgive seventy times seven…”Matthew 7:6 – “Do not cast your pearls before swine…”Proverbs 26:11 – “As a dog returns to its vomit…” (implied in the theme)🧠 Core Takeaway:Love is unconditional, but help is not.
