Today we are in Proverbs 18:8, and Solomon has one razor-sharp verse about gossip: why it feels so appetizing, how it permanently shifts the way we see people, and where the line falls between sinful gossip and a genuine ministry concern. In This Episode: Why gossip feeds insecurity and creates a false sense of moral superiority How a rumor, true or untrue, changes the lens through which we view someone The practical test: gossip is speaking to anyone who cannot be part of the solution Key Quote: "Anything that makes us feel better about ourselves at somebody else's expense is dangerous ground."
