Today is a special day. And I’d love your feedback.
Today is our 200th blog post. Can you believe it?!
We’re celebrating with many of our posts all wrapped into a nice, tidy package: the play button below. It’s the audio of a workshop I did. And I’d really love your feedback.
that’s worthy

The paradigm I share has been hugely helpful for me:
- It’s helped me distinguish what feedback is wise… and what feedback looks wise, but actually isn’t.
- It’s helped me find healing in things that have been seemingly oddly, incredibly hurtful… though I couldn’t quite put my finger on why.
- It’s helped me be wise in when I should say something to another person… and when I am free to simply live and let live.
And it’s given me hope – that this thing called life, that sometimes gets messy and hurtful – that this thing called church, that sometimes seems confusing whether something is wisdom or judgmental – that this thing called relationships, that sometimes feels life-building yet other times life-destroying – it’s given me hope that vitality and health and restoration may, in some situations, be as simple as a little tweak. For me in my life, so much healing came when I finally got clarity on one small tweak.
So I’ve wondered if this was just helpful for me… or if it might be helpful for others as well?
The Lord has brought some folks across my path who have found it helpful and healing. It’s been exciting to see how impactful it’s been for them.
I’m trying to gauge if it’s helpful to a wide swath or if it’s simply helpful for a targeted few. So this is where I need your help. Would you listen to it and let me know if it is helpful to you?
This is the paradigm we unpack. It may be helpful to print out this page and follow along.
Then you’ll need this when I mention flipping to the ‘back’:
If you’re like me, you’ll want a bit of an outline of what’s ahead:
introduction: 3 reasons why what we’re going to talk about is important
the meat: Everything we can possibly confront falls into one of 3 categories. Easily discern which category it’s in and how to handle it well!
- Yes, their actual action is clearly stated in Scripture.
- No, their action isn’t in Scripture, but it’s how people should do it!
- Practically. I mean, their actual action isn’t in Scripture, but the motive I feel certain is behind their action is.
the last column: Whom are we helping in each situation?
our simple fix: a handy tool to be sure our ‘wisdom’ is like the wisdom from heaven – first of all pure!
