What Do We Do About Wicked People? [318]
In today’s episode, I explore the difficult and often shocking realization that wickedness exists in the world—and sometimes within our closest relationships. Responding to a listener's inquiry and using insights from Adam Young’s “The Place We Find Ourselves” podcast, we’ll unpack the biblical definition of wickedness and discuss how it operates. I’ll also share personal experiences and strategies for recognizing and dealing with destructive individuals.
Key Takeaways:
- The Bible differentiates between normal and wicked people. Understanding these distinctions helps us navigate relationships wisely.
- Wicked individuals attack and blame others when confronted with their harmful actions.
- Evil individuals actively seek to destroy and humiliate their targets.
- A person's true nature is revealed in difficult situations, especially when they are confronted about their harmful behavior.
- Healing from exposure to wicked or evil individuals is a lifelong process, but it becomes possible when we remove ourselves from the toxic environment.
