Love in the Tension: An Upstream Response to Bigotry Accusations
In this episode, we're diving into a question from one of our Pursuers: How should we behave towards believers who view our biblical convictions as bigotry?
Navigating differences in belief—especially within the body of Christ—can feel heavy, but it's also an opportunity to reflect God's love. Together, we'll break down what bigotry means, assess our own hearts with humility, and explore how Scripture calls us to approach tough conversations.
We'll talk about:
✨ How to pray for understanding and unity
✨ Speaking truth with love and grace
✨ The power of listening with curiosity
✨ Responding with compassion, not defensiveness
At the end of the day, our highest calling is to honor God — and that means honoring people, even when we don't see eye to eye.
