Speaking Truth in Tough Conversations

Ellie Dole and Scott Chapman explore Ephesians 4:15 and introduce a four-quadrant matrix for speaking truth and love in relationships — call-out, cave-in, check-out, and connect. They discuss how truth + love create trust, how fear and identity shape communication, and practical steps for slowing down, asking questions, and listening well. The episode applies the quadrant to marriage, friendship, parenting, and leadership, and highlights the Spirit’s role in guiding honest conversations. They close by previewing next week’s message on forgiveness.
