The Scarcity of Humility: Being Humble with Social Media and Conversation
These last few months of conversations, social media posts, and news coverage have been marked with division, arrogance, mockery, smugness, and condescension, even among the church and towards other believers. Shockingly absent and increasingly rare is humility, meekness, empathy, discretion, thoughtfulness, and peacemaking. It is overwhelming to see the amount of ink given in God's Word to the topic of quarreling, division, our words, and how to manage strife. In a world that is increasingly divided over issues like politics and science and freedoms, the church must do better than the world. How do we have our words, even our opinions, be seasoned with salt, helpful, thoughtful, encouraging, unifying, and tethered by self-control and discretion?
