Talebearers: a short study

Read Proverbs 18 together and discuss the meaning of 'tale-bearer.'
Listen to this episode of Paws and Tales today; The Tribe.
Copy and discuss the following:

Also it is wise not to believe everything you hear, not immediately to carry to the ears of others what you have either heard or believed.
THOMAS A KEMPIS.

But Whispering Tongues can poison truth. Coleridge

Words are mighty, words are living;
Serpents with their venomous stings,
Or bright angels crowding round us,
With heaven's light upon their wings;
Every word has its own spirit,
True or false, that never dies;
Every word man's lips have uttered
Echoes in God's skies.
A. A. PROCTER.
