When Public Conversation Declines, Teach Her to Rise Above

Today’s world seems fraught with unkind words from cable news to online conversations. This decline in civility can be confusing to your girl. Uncharitable words and inconsiderate phrasing can cut like a knife.  

Strengthen her with the knowledge that God desires us to be intentional with our words. Colossians 3:12 reminds us to share the virtues of love, compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience, as we are God’s chosen people.  

Your girl can change the world around her by choosing kindness in her words and daily life. Demonstrate civility in your own actions—your example can make all the difference!  

Col. 3:12, NIV
