Is BITTERNESS A Serious Spiritual Problem?

Dec 12, 2025    Pastor Robert R. McLaughlin

The discussion centers on the spiritual and psychological impacts of bitterness, referencing biblical passages and personal anecdotes. McLaughlin emphasizes that bitterness, often stemming from injustice and unmet expectations, can lead to physical and mental health issues, including cancer and nervous system problems. Bitterness is described as a self-destructive trait, affecting personal relationships, marriages, and societal interactions. The conversation highlights the importance of spiritual love and forgiveness in overcoming bitterness, citing examples from the Bible, such as Hannah's barrenness and Job's suffering. The ultimate message is to address bitterness proactively to avoid its destructive consequences.
