If you let your opinions, thoughts, and beliefs be known, chances are you will receive some pushback from someone who disagrees (unless you only express yourself in the bubble of like-minded people).
Sometimes that pushback can be encouraging - when it is done graciously, with the intent of educating you on some point you've missed or hadn't considered. Other times it can be mean-spirited and ugly, just meant to berate. Sometimes it's a mixture of both...
Anyhoo...how do we respond in ways that show grace and Christlikeness? That's what we try to tackle today.
