The Power of Words: Words are more than just sounds or written letters; they carry incredible power. The Bible reminds us in Proverbs 18:21 that "The tongue has the power of life and death." This means the things we say can either uplift and encourage, or wound and destroy. Every day, our conversations have the potential to influence the lives of others in profound ways.
Consider how a kind word can brighten a dark moment, offering hope and comfort. Conversely, harsh or careless speech can cause lasting damage to relationships and self-esteem. Throughout Scripture, God emphasizes the importance of guarded and gracious speech—our words are reflections of our hearts.

We will explore how to speak life, how to control the tongue, and how God uses words to shape our identity and faith.
