Episode Transcript
Ron: One way to mature as a person is to stop bragging.
Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.
Ron: Whether it’s an athlete pounding their chest or someone posting about their latest accomplishment, our world seems to love people who call attention to themselves. Songs even beg, “Watch me, watch me” or “I don’t know about you, but baby I love me.” Ah, when a four-year-old does that we call it annoying, but for some reason our world calls it swagger. The Bible calls it immaturity.
Proverbs 27 says, “Let another praise you, and not your own mouth.” Hey, if someone notices and compliments you on a job well done, great! But don’t’ call attention to yourself, just quietly be Jesus. For FamilyLife Blended, I’m Ron Deal.
