Sermon Notes:
Pulls Others Up Rather than Pushing Others Down:
Pulling Others Up:
· Be Quick to Listen and Slow to Talk-James 1: 19
· Pray for someone who is hurting or burdened-Philippians 4: 13
· Be Patient-Ephesians 4: 2
· Encourage your spouse, family member, or friend-1 Thessalonians 5: 11
· Celebrate someone else’s “wins”-Romans 12: 15
This is what it means to Push Others Down:
· Corrupting Talk-Ephesians 4: 29
· Harboring-Judgement-Matthew 7: 1
· Bitterness, Wrath, Anger and Clamor-Ephesians 4: 31-32
And I quote “Most people find anger addictive because it makes their egos feel righteous, justified or victimized. Pointing the finger at another is much easier than examining one’s own Shadows.“
