Summary

Today on The Best of You podcast, we’re diving into how to discern toxic vs. healthy patterns of behavior. There is no one-size fits all when it comes to setting healthy boundaries. It requires discernment and wisdom; strategy and skill. I discuss what I call the Spectrum of Toxicity and the topic of evil (a topic so many of you have asked me about!) Here’s what we cover: 1. What is toxicity? How does it relate to what the Bible calls evil? 2. What about people who are consistently choosing to do harm? 3. The spectrum of toxicity 4. Behaviors that show up on the healthy side of the spectrum 5. Behaviors that show up on the toxic side of the spectrum 6. The key ingredient that distinguishes health from toxicity 7. The best way to become a discerning, wise (& healthier) person. 8. What does the Bible say about toxicity?
