Verbalize the Truth in Love With Healthy Boundaries

Scripture: Ephesians 4:15 — “Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.”

Empathy is not the same as enabling. The sermon explains that real love includes speaking truth gently, clearly, and with kindness. Loving boundaries help create safety — for you and for the person you’re walking with. When we speak the truth with humility, we help others grow toward Christ without shame or harshness. Boundaries are not walls; they are channels for healthy, redemptive relationships.

Reflection Question:
Is there a relationship in your life where truth and boundaries are needed so that love can flourish?
