What does it really mean to be gentle? Is it weakness, meekness, or something far stronger? In this episode, Brian explores the biblical virtue ofย gentlenessย through surprising storiesโfrom Andre the Giant inย The Princess Brideย to the quiet strength of Jesus on the cross.
Weโll look at how gentleness is often misunderstood in Western Christianity, especially around masculinity, and why true gentleness is actuallyย power restrained, strength refined, and love expressed with precision. Along the way, weโll consider how gentleness shapes our four core relationshipsโwith God, with others, with ourselves, and with creation and culture.
Discover why gentleness isnโt just โbeing niceโ but a crucial marker of deep discipleship and Christlike formation.
