Speech reveals the heart.
Matthew 12:24b "For our of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks."
If it is coming out of their mouth it is in their heart. If the heart
condition is not addressed the mouth cannot truly change. This gives us
the challenge to check our own hearts by listening to what is said, and
it gives us the opportunity to recognize what is in the heart of those
we are hearing communicate.
The Bully Solution exists to address the foundational issues of bullying. Challenging parents, children, and teens to consider God's standards for life, who I really am, and how to Biblically solve conflict.
