Thought of the Week: Airing Our Dirty Laundry

Ever consider the phrase “airing out your dirty laundry”? It is based around the idea of taking worn, dirty, smelly laundry and putting it out on the line for all to smell and see. It leaves a bad impression of the owner to those around. It gives a proper picture of what gossip really is. It leaves a bad impression of the one who gossips, the subject of said gossip, and the Lord’s church. Instead of airing out dirty laundry for all to see, why not listen to the wonderful words of Christ (Matthew 18:15). Take these problems and concerns to the one with whom you have the problem. Keep the rest of the world out of it.
