How to Lovingly Disagree Like Jesus In a Culture that Loves to Fight Loudly
Renew You with Quinn KellyShow Notes
In today’s society, disagreeing is a part of culture. But sometimes disagreements among believers or with non-believers seem to take on a tone or style that doesn’t align with Jesus. This leaves believers in a position where they must learn how to disagree in a way that honors Jesus while also being able to be honest with their convictions. In today’s episode, Quinn teaches listeners how to model their disagreements after Jesus by: 1. Examining the tones that Jesus used in fights 2. Looking at the people he disagreed with and understanding why 3. Teaching steps to follow when modelling our behavior after him Scripture Renewal Tip: Get behind me, Satan! You do not have in mind the concerns of God but merely human concerns! Mind Renewal Tip: When we disagree with others, we need to be mindful that our words and actions reveal Jesus is alive and active within us!
