Tox·ic | Perilous World Radio 4/29/25

Toxic: very harmful or unpleasant in a pervasive or insidious way.

In the recent episode of the Perilous World Radio show, hosted by David and Jan Masters, the discussion centered around the theme of toxic people. David shared his observations from news coverage, pointing out the portrayal of certain political figures as harmful and spreading misinformation. He reflected on how these individuals label others, particularly those aligned with the MAGA movement, as enemies.
The conversation then shifted to the guidance provided by the Bible on handling difficult relationships. While the Scriptures advocate for love, forgiveness, and reconciliation, they also stress the importance of discernment and the need to establish boundaries to protect oneself from negative influences. A highlighted verse from Proverbs (22:24-25) cautions against befriending an angry person, emphasizing that such associations can lead one to adopt harmful behaviors and undermine their own well-being.
Jan shares a powerful story about a man and his toxic stepfather. Despite the emotional abuse he endured as a child, the man found strength through his Christian faith. During a visit with his aging stepfather, he felt compelled to give him $100, despite believing he owed nothing. This act led to deeper conversations about faith. When the stepfather fell ill, the man prayed for him, wishing for his redemption. Remarkably, the following day, the stepfather told a nurse that he had made peace with God, no longer fearing hell. This story powerfully illustrates the possibility of forgiveness and redemption, even for those who have caused great harm.
