Avoiding Gossip Is A Significant Act Of Love

“Refusing to gossip and trusting God to help us silence as much gossip as we can is one of the most loving things we can do for others.” [James Bryan Smith]  One of the reasons the Bible calls “gossip” sin is because gossip tears down others.  The Christian faith is about loving, encouraging and building up others. So, avoiding gossip—which can be challenging—is a significant act of love toward others.
