dc.description.abstract The following paper will explore how church gossip can affect one’s faith and/or ministry in the Christian church. In Church Gossip: Prophecy or Profanity?, Rachel Campbell interviews seven Christians from various denominations, from four provinces in Canada, to look deeper into the topic of gossip within the Christian church community and the potential risks and benefits. Through literature reviews, theological analysis, and the information given by participants, this paper will reveal how church gossip can be both prophecy and profanity. One of the key findings of this qualitative research project focuses on the intent of the person sharing the information as one of the key indicators of whether church gossip was meant to be harmful or helpful. en_CA
