Speaking Truth Unashamedly, Confession and Accountability | Tim Ross and Bianca Juarez Olthoff

Have you ever been misinterpreted or criticized by something you said? Are you trying to navigate the challenges of cancel-culture while maintaining your commitment to speaking the truth?
My friend Tim Ross, and my guest on today’s show, is a podcaster, social media influencer, author, and preacher who’s had his experiences with controversy and conflict, both in public and on social media.
Tim shares how he remains unashamed in speaking the truth. He also provides insights on:
• Responding to criticism
• Handling conflict in a mature and loving manner
• Addressing strong language and misinterpretation
Anyone who has a public platform knows that there will always be online criticism and sometimes controversy. Knowing when not to engage is important.
Having a space for people to be seen, heard, known, and loved is important for healing from this and other types of trauma. Therapy and confession are a crucial role in the healing process.
Show your appreciation to Tim by tagging him @Upsetthegram and me @biancaolthoff.
Love you,
B

Confession is literally good for the soul. It's absolutely good for the soul. And there's a lot of people that confess vertically, but they don't do it horizontally, and therefore they actually don't get healed.
Takeaways
1. Dealing with controversy and conflict requires a strong sense of identity and purpose.
2. Navigating cancel-culture involves staying true to one's beliefs and not being swayed by public opinion.
3. Responding to criticism and controversy should be done with maturity, love, and a willingness to engage in dialogue.
4. Using strong language can be effective in conveying strong emotions, but it is important to consider the context and potential misinterpretation.

Love this talk! Pastor Tim is a great speaker/pastor and I enjoyed seeing him live at AO's live taping last year.

[@ninasimone3505]

I have ALWAYS wanted to see you both on a podcast together and this was so beautiful to see! Loved the mention of marrying both theology with therapy, it’s so needed within the body of Christ❤️thank you for an amazing episode!

This was so awesome. 😊❤

[@katceeee]

Thank you, Pastor Tim! You're right to use that word in that context. As a a victim of several church people who did that to me... it IS F'd up, for sure! I ended up "staying and praying" for my demon bound abusive husband as a result of that Fd up advice, only to be abused worse than ever. 😢 they made me believe that God called me to stay and pray for, and LOVE the most evil, selfish, vile, demonic being, and it nearly kulled me.

@katceeee, it's never okay to use that kind of language. Tim Ross is wrong, and just because he holds a platform doesn't make it alright. We are called to be Holy. Would you use that kind of language in front of Jesus, the one that will judge you someday.... Probably not, and neither would I.
