Summary

Oftentimes criticism can leave believers wounded and confused; but in today’s podcast we see three principles for believers about criticism. In this episode, Emma Dotter and Lucina Thompson walk us through 2 Samuel 16-17, teaching that leadership matters, how you give criticism matters and how to respond to criticism matters.

Scripture referenced in today’s episode:
James 3:10, “Out of the same mouth comes blessing and cursing.”
Luke 6:45, “Out of the overflow of the heart man speaks.”
Proverbs 27:6, “Faithful are the wounds of a friend.”
Proverbs 12:18, “Rash words are like a sword thrust.”
Proverbs 15:1, “Soft answer turns away wrath.”

0:00.0	Reading our Bibles regularly can be a challenge, but we're all on this journey together.
0:05.8	We're praying that this podcast inspires you, helps you better understand God's word, and builds your faith.
0:12.2	This is Join the Journey with your host, Emma Daughter.
0:16.9	Thanks for joining. I am in the podcast studio with a dear friend, Lucino Thompson. So great to be with you today.
0:24.9	I'm glad to have you back. You've been here before, done a couple episodes, shared your story. So we'll link those episodes so people can hear more about what the Lord's done in your life. Perfect.
0:35.4	So tell us today, maybe a little bit about your family.
0:38.5	Sure. It's really fun because four generations of our family are attending Watermarket this time.
0:44.7	Wow. Wow. My mother-in-law, Mary V. Thompson, 85. Shout out to Mary V. Both of my kids, I have a son on staff.
0:52.4	My daughter, her husband, and three grandkids are here

1:16.6	I always look at something and try to summarize it in my mind.
1:19.6	What is it that's being said here?
1:22.6	What are the takeaways for me?
1:23.6	And so I think really in this passage, there's three things that matter and that are
1:29.3	different than what I wrote in the journey. The first item is that leadership matters. It matters.
1:36.0	Whether you're a mom at home in your family, whether you are leading at work in some capacity, whether you're leading at your church or in a nonprofit
1:47.2	organization, leading matters. And David was the appointed king. God appointed him. He didn't
1:55.8	choose this. As a matter of fact, he could have taken it from Saul multiple times. We've already
2:00.2	seen that in the text leading up, and he doesn't.
2:03.3	And he doesn't, but yet God appointed him to be king.
