Bullying is a huge issue in schools and workplaces, but what do you do when your bully is a pastor or leader of a Christian organization?

Do you give a gentle word and turn the other cheek, or do you stand up and fight?

Welcome to the Roy's Report, a podcast dedicated to reporting the truth and

restoring the church. I'm Julie Roy's. And today you're going to hear a message from Paul Cochlin,

a best-selling author and nationally recognized anti-bullying expert. According to Paul,

most of the population are not bullies. They're generally nice if you're nice to them,

and if you give a gentle word, they'll turn from their anger. But studies show about 15% are

malevolent, Paul says. They're bullies, and being nice and gracious just makes things worse.

What's even more alarming is that these bullies do the most harm in professions that attract

nurturing personalities.

These include medicine, teaching, and ministry.

In this eye-opening talk from the recent Restore Conference, Paul explains what makes

bullies tick and how to respond if you're the victim of a bully.

Paul does an awesome job of peeling back the common deception and spiritual

manipulation that allows bullies free reign. I think you're going to benefit so much from this

presentation, but first, I want to thank the sponsors of this podcast, Judson University and
