Have compassion.
Give grace.
Treat people with dignity.
But don’t trade conviction for approval.
You don’t have to be cruel to have a backbone.
Love people fiercely.
And love God enough to stand firm when doing so costs you something. 🤍
Somewhere along the way, we started believing that loving people means agreeing with them.
It doesn’t.
Jesus loved people enough to meet them where they were, but He never pretended wrong was right just to make people comfortable.
That’s the standard.
