#166 - Kyle Thompson // A Time to Keep Silence, and a Time to Speak

We explore Ecclesiastes 3:7, focusing on the wisdom of knowing when to keep silent and when to speak up in our Christian walk. The challenge of controlling our tongues affects all men, whether it's saying hurtful things or failing to speak truth when needed. • The Serenity Prayer offers a framework for discerning when to accept things and when to take action • God's wisdom through Scripture and the Holy Spirit helps us navigate when to speak and when to stay silent • In Habakkuk, God reminds us there are times to be silent and submit to His sovereignty • Ephesians 4:15 teaches us to "speak the truth in love" as part of spiritual maturity • Christians must balance both speaking truth and doing so with love—not choosing just one • We have a responsibility to confront sin, false teaching, and spiritual deception in others' lives Join us tomorrow as we continue our journey through Ecclesiastes.
