#222 – The Overshare

We know since way back in the LiveJournal dayzzz that we have all been encouraged to record every thought, movement, and complaint for the internet to read. And you probably know that you shouldn’t do that, but we want to talk about why that is. Why is it that we don’t complain about our husbands on the internet? We know we ought not “air our dirty laundry,” but do we know why?

We also want to discuss where it is appropriate to bring our trials and problems. How do we build each other up, bear each other’s burdens, and work through issues together in a way that glorifies God?
