We see fights in the media all the time. School fights go viral on social media. People insult one another all the time on Facebook and Twitter. People fight to defend someone else. But what should Christians do? Should we ever engage in physical, verbal, or virtual fights?
On today’s podcast, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie answer a listener question about how Christians should handle fighting, whether in a physical, verbal, or virtual setting. What role does anger play in these fights? Our goal is to shed light on how we ought to fight (or refrain from) to bring glory to God and be a good witness for Christ. We also look into some situations that may merit physical violence. Check out this pod and we hope you're encouraged!
