Call Out or Lift Up? When to Rebuke and When to Restore
Do you naturally lift people up—or feel called to call them out? In this episode, we'll wrestle with the tension between calling out arrogance and lifting up the ashamed, because both require Spirit-led wisdom. One of the worst things we can do is kick someone when they’re already down—but just as dangerous is empowering someone who's stuck in sin and denial.

About "The Nonmicrowaved Truth":
How fast do you have to have "IT"? Our culture tells us to find a microwave to speed up the process. C.L. Whiteside, a man who sees and hears multiple perspectives through his life of coaching sports, serving in education, and attempting to conform to Christ, searches for the nonmicrowaved truth. C.L. gets that what’s cool and acceptable now, may not be cool and acceptable tomorrow—and most importantly, may not be what’s best.
