Gossip and slander are everywhere in our culture, but they are not sins Christians are immune to, which is why this is a topic worth addressing. Scripture speaks plainly about the destructive power of our words, and the Bible consistently condemns both gossip and slander as serious sins of the tongue. In this episode, we’ll consider what Scripture reveals about the root and effects of these sins, how Christians can guard their hearts and words, and how we should respond when gossip or slander comes our way. We’ll also look at how Faith Baptist seeks to protect unity through our Communication Covenant and offer practical wisdom for distinguishing sinful speech from the loving sharing of genuine concerns—so that our words might build up rather than tear down.
