Tim Keller, on navigating the water of today’s political crises:
The way to navigate such waters is still to follow the book of Proverbs’ prescription for your words. They must be honest, few, extremely well-crafted, usually calm, always aimed to edify (even when critical) and they must be accompanied with lots of silent listening.
I would only add—extremely critically, I think—that we must listen to, follow, praise, and simply pay attention only to those others who do this, or at least aim to do this, as well.
