The Gentle Life
Softer’s louder.
Every day, 100,000 new songs are added to Spotify, 59,961,600 posts hit Instagram, 492,480,000 Tweets are sent, and 293,760,000,000 emails arrive in inboxes around the world. With so much information hurled at as, the only way to be heard is by being louder than all the rest.
Or is it?
What if there’s another way to break through the noise? What if there’s a better way to communicate? What if there’s a more disruptive and revolutionary way to connect and create change?
Could it be that a soft, gentle word is the most powerful way to make our message heard?
This weekend, we’ll explore perhaps the most underrated and underestimated attribute the Apostle Paul calls disciples of Jesus to display.
