Proverbs 11:13 "A gossiper goes around revealing secrets, but those who are trustworthy can keep a confidence."

Proverbs 18:18 "What small morsels rumors are, but they sink deep into one's heart."

Sometimes we say things that we don't mean or spread a rumor that isn't true. We've all done it. But no matter how it starts, gossip ends up hurting someone. The Bible says that it's not our place to judge others, that’s God's job.

Extra time in the Word: Matthew 7:1-5
