Gossip and the Journal of Biblical Counseling

I love the JBC. I can remember reading it for the first time more than a decade ago--even the spot where I laid it down in between readings.

The current issue came out when we were on vacation this Summer, and I didn't get to read it through until recently.

I was helped by each of the articles, and was struck with how many had a direct bearing on the subject of resisting gossip:

• Pierce Hibbs's theological understanding of what words are and do.

• Paul Tripp on how powerful our words are.

• David Powlison on how sanctification works, told in a series of personal stories.

Announcement:

For years, it has been on my "bucket list" to be published in the JBC. I'm excited to share that the next issue of the Journal of Biblical Counseling will include an article that is a chapter lifted and lighted edited from Resisting Gossip. Thank you, Lord!
