When deception touches someone we love, discernment becomes deeply personal. In this episode of Contending for the Word Q&A, Dave Jenkins addresses one of the most painful areas of Christian faithfulness: how to respond biblically when a spouse, child, friend, or fellow church member begins drifting from the truth of God's Word. Drawing from James 5:19–20 and Galatians 6:1, this message explains that Scripture calls believers to: • Recognize the spiritual seriousness of deception • Pursue restoration, not argument • Speak with gentleness and humility • Trust God with the outcome Faithful discernment is not harshness, and love is not silence. Christ calls us to hold truth and compassion together, trusting Him to restore wandering hearts. Stand firm in the Word. Love courageously. Speak truth patiently.
