“Communication is part of God’s plan for us and an essential way to experience fellowship. Made in the image and likeness of our Creator, we are able to express and share all that is true, good, and beautiful.
“But when we yield to our own pride and selfishness, we can also distort the way we use our ability to communicate.”
