Girl Talk

Revenge vs. Redemption


Listen Later

“Jesus didn’t open His mouth when accused — and sometimes we’re called to do the same.”

Revenge might not be something we’d admit to craving, but if we're honest... we've all felt the sting of wanting someone to "get what they deserve." In this episode, Carol, Kelly and Tricia dive into why that feeling is so common, how to know when it's taking root in your heart, and what to do when you’d rather plot revenge than pursue healing.

The girls unpack what God says about justice, why revenge never actually satisfies, and how to let go when you're stuck in the hurt.

This one is for anyone who's been wronged, wounded, or just wrestling with the desire to "set the record straight." Jesus has something better for us — and it's not silence, it's surrender.

Remember
  • Revenge doesn’t heal your pain — Jesus does. It might feel justified in the moment, but revenge won’t bring the peace you’re after.
  • God is a just God. Trusting Him with the outcome frees you from the weight of trying to make things right on your own.

  • Healing is a process. Releasing revenge might not be a one-time thing — and that’s okay. Keep coming back to gratitude, prayer, and His character.
