Episode Synopsis


Your words are powerful… they shape your life, steer your direction, and leave a legacy long after they’re spoken. In Part 4 of our Wisdom That Works series, Pastor Jonathan explores the wisdom of controlling our tongue and using our speech not for destruction, but to bring life! 
Key Takeaways 
Our Words Steer Our Lives – Like a bit in a horse’s mouth or a rudder on a ship, your words set your direction.What’s Down in the Well Comes Up in the Bucket – Your words reveal what fills your heart (Luke 6:45).We’re Either Building or Bulldozing – Words can wound (careless, harsh, deceptive, negative, corrupt) or heal (honest, gracious, timely, edifying)Restrain and Release – Wisdom knows when to be slow to speak and when to speak with power, truth, and kindness (James 1:19–20).
You can’t control every situation, but you can control what comes out of your mouth. Speak life, not death, and watch how wisdom transforms your world!
