“Likewise urge the younger men to
control themselves. Show yourself in all respects a model of good deeds, and in
your teaching show integrity, gravity, and sound speech that cannot be
censured, so that an opponent may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say
of us.” Titus 2:6-8
It has
always been a source of humor and some puzzlement to me when, in the middle of conversation,
someone uses an off-color word, looks at me, and says, “Sorry.” I have been in
the ministry for many years, but worked in the secular world off and on as
well. When I was a sales manager, no one apologized for colorful language,
unless they knew I was a Christian.
