Sacred Spaces — Stewarding Relationships with Honor and Humility

In a world that rewards hot takes and quick clap-backs, Jesus calls us to something better: honor, humility, and Spirit-led boundaries. This conversation gets practical about stewarding relationships—marriage, friendships, coworkers, ministry—like the sacred spaces they are.

In this episode

• How to honor people you disagree with (without going passive)
• Humility over pride: why connection beats competition
• Setting Spirit-led boundaries that protect, not punish
• Forgiveness as releasing uncollectible debt (Eph 4:32)
• Valuing people over preferences (Phil 2:3)
• Seeing every relationship as ministry (Col 3:23)
• Inviting the Holy Spirit into your daily interactions

Scriptures

Romans 12:9–18; Philippians 2:3; Ephesians 4:32; Proverbs 4:23; Ephesians 6:10–18; Colossians 3:23

Reflection questions

1. Where am I choosing preference over people?
2. What boundary (Spirit-led) would protect connection this week?
3. Who do I need to forgive—and what debt am I still trying to collect?
4. How does the Holy Spirit see the person I’m struggling with?

Weekly challenge

• Pray: “Holy Spirit, how can I honor someone today?”
• Put one boundary in place that preserves peace.
• Replace one criticism with encouragement—on purpose.
