Conflict 08 Jul 18

(Message 5) “Are you stupid?!” These words hurt and are usually meant as an attack. Sometimes we need to consider them, however. The Proverbs teach us about what being “stupid” or being a fool looks like. Join us as we learn to be wise and avoid being stupid in conflict and correction. #gcpitythefool
