Gossip is about positioning myself; making peace is about positioning Jesus!

Conflict is inevitable, but how we communicate during conflict determines whether we promote peace or escalate tension.

Communicating with empathy closes the gap between me and others.

One word of criticism can tear someone down, but one word of encouragement can build someone up. We can either be fault finders or life givers!

I can’t live a life on purpose if I stay on the bench.

Because we know that our faith will be tested, we’re going to decide to be faithful now.

Because I know temptation will eventually show up, I can pre-decide to be ready today.

The most important decision we can make is to seek first the one who matters most.

Instead of pursuing signs and shortcuts for guidance, God invites us to pursue character with His help!
