Every mature Christian man should pursue gentleness and flee from violence and bickering.
To be gentle is to be tender, humble, and fair, to know what posture and response are fitting for any occasion.
To pursue gentleness is to imitate Jesus.
We are to be gentle so we can serve as a display of the one who deals so gently with us.
Strategies to be gentle and peacemaking with others.
