How Should Christians Deal with Bitterness?
Hey everyone and welcome back to Deeper Roots.
People are difficult, and we all know that. People make things weird, and sometimes there can be tension between people. This tension is what makes relationships hard, and not just romantic ones, but every relationship we have with each other. We can disagree on a load of things, or we can say one thing and then not follow through. Such is the complexity of being with people. But despite these difficulties, people are inherently social. God designed us in that way, so despite the difficulties of life, we can look to each other and find some help within the people we know, our brethren.
But unless you live in a place where there is only perfect people, there is no exception to the fact that we are going to have relationship problems. We might fee like someone did something unfair and so we become bitter or angry with that person. And this includes with brothers and sisters within the church. So, the question a listener submitted for today’s podcast is “How should Christians deal with bitterness and resentment with other brethren?”
