On this episode of This vs. That, we are joined by Dr. Kristen Kellen, associate professor of biblical counseling and associate Director of the Doctorate of Education Studies at the Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. We discuss the important topic of gossip versus godly sharing and how to discern between the two. We explore the definition of gossip and its underlying motivation, as well as the importance of understanding the person being discussed. We also delve into the complexities of everyday conversations and the art of navigating them in a way that edifies rather than harms. Along the way, we offer helpful tips for addressing gossip and avoiding the temptation to justify it. Join us for this insightful discussion on a topic that affects us all.

At Anchored Hope, we're committed to excellence. We believe that compassionate, biblically grounded, clinically informed counseling shouldn't be hard to find. That's why we are also committed to affordability and accessibility. To do this as a nonprofit, however, requires us to lock arms with people who care about the mental, emotional, and spiritual crisis happening all around us.

If this is you, we need your help. This month we launched a brand new giving campaign and we are seeking to find a hundred people willing to give so that others might live. Whether it's $5 or a thousand dollars, we need your help. These proceeds go to men, women and families, pastors, ministry leaders, and missionaries across the globe in need of counseling care today.

In order to join us, go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠anchoredhope.co/give⁠⁠⁠⁠ and join the cause for accessible, affordable, and excellent counseling care today.

While our funds go to people in need of counseling and to support the growing ministry of Ingrid Hope, we have two specific financial needs. One is to serve ministry leaders in a foreign country that are caring and doing outreach to trafficked victims. The other need is a request to help and financing counseling for military families across the nation.

If you would like more information about these two opportunities to give, send us an [email protected]
