Episode 71: The Secret Sin No One Talks About

In Episode 71, Pastor Ron Tolson and Minister Phillip Delgado dive into a sin that often flies under the radar in many churches and Christian communities: gossip. Though it can disguise itself as concern, conversation, or curiosity, and even a "prayer request" gossip is a destructive force that fractures relationships, distorts truth, and undermines the unity of the Body of Christ.

Together, Ron and Phillip unpack the spiritual consequences of gossip, why it grieves the heart of God, and how it subtly infiltrates our daily interactions. Drawing from Scripture, personal stories, and pastoral insight, they expose the real motivations behind gossip—such as insecurity, pride, and comparison—and challenge listeners to examine their hearts and conversations.

This episode doesn’t just call out the problem—it offers practical tools for freedom and transformation. You’ll learn how to recognize gossip, how to confront it biblically, and how to become a voice of honor and healing in a culture of careless words.

Whether you’ve been the victim of gossip, struggled with speaking it yourself, or simply want to guard your mouth and your spirit, this conversation will convict, encourage, and equip you.

Scripture Highlights:

  •  Proverbs 16:28 – “A perverse person stirs up conflict, and a gossip separates close friends.”

  •  James 3:5-10 – The power of the tongue
