SNAKE 36: What Does Biblical Gentleness Look Like?

Dec 26, 2024    Tanner Cartwright, Jerry Dorris

Discover the often misunderstood biblical truth about gentleness and how it differs from modern interpretations. When is it appropriate to be firm, and when should we show gentleness? We explore how Jesus demonstrated both qualities perfectly, challenging popular misconceptions about what true biblical gentleness looks like.


In this episode, we tackle tough questions about gentleness in street preaching, social media engagement, and public discourse. Learn how to balance strong convictions with Christ-like character, and understand why being "gentle" doesn't always mean being "nice."
