Scene 1/3
Scene 1
A group chat.
A group chat. A classmate is not there when people start making fun of them. A friend adds a joke and waits for you to join in. What do you do?

“Plain-language summary: Use words that build people up instead of tearing them down. Let go of bitterness and anger. Be kind, compassionate, and ready to forgive, as God forgives you in Christ.”

Ephesians 4:29–32This passage connects healthy friendship with helpful words, kindness, and forgiveness.
No wrong answers — this is yours.

Whichever you pick, we’ll walk one more scene before the reflection.
