About this listen

 We've all seen hollow public apologies. But most of us won't face public scandal—we'll face everyday moments when we've hurt someone and need to make it right. Sometimes it's sin, sometimes it's unintentional. How do you know the difference? And how do you apologize well? In this episode of the Everyday Disciple Podcast, we're going to show you what makes an apology actually work—and what secretly sabotages it. We'll explore the biblical foundation for making things right, walk through the three core elements every genuine apology needs, and help you spot the four mistakes that torpedo apologies. In This Episode You’ll Learn:
  • The real reason you're putting off that apology
  • What the gospel teaches us about confession and restoration
  • The three essential components of a genuine apology
  • Four deadly phrases that undermine your sincerity

Get started here... From this episode: "Putting off making an apology, when you know that you are the offending party, is selfish. And it is probably the result of self-love and/or fear of man issues. Ask God to give you the humility to go and make an honest and full apology, trusting him for the results. This episode will encourage you and help you move toward true reconciliation."
