Bullying is a huge issue in schools and workplaces. But what do you do when your bully is a pastor or leader of a Christian organization? Do you give a gentle word and turn the other cheek? Or, do you stand up and fight?
On this edition of The Roys Report, we’ll hear from Paul Coughlin, a best-selling author and nationally recognized anti-bullying expert, as he speaks at the Restore Conference.
In this eye-opening talk, Paul explains what makes bullies tick—and how to respond if you’re the victim of a bully.
According to Paul, 85-percent of the population are not inclined to bullying. They’re generally nice if you’re nice to them. And if you give a gentle word, they’ll turn from their anger.
But the other 15-percent are malevolent. They’re bullies. And being nice and gracious just makes things worse.
What’s even more alarming: stats show these bullies do the most harm in professions that attract nurturing personalities. These include medicine, teaching—and ministry.
Paul systematically peels back the spiritual manipulation and common deceptions that allow bullies to have free rein.
