It’s a new episode of Resident Strangers! Be honest — have you ever withheld the truth from someone because you didn’t think they could handle it? Or have you joked around with your friends but made one sarcastic comment that went too far? Maybe you’ve been caught up in gossiping. Whatever the case may be, we all have misused the power of our words. What we say has the power to affect people. God knows this, and He knows our sinful nature can corrupt that. Today we dive into a passage in Ephesians 4, which warns against degrading, unwholesome, inappropriate, untruthful speech. As Christians, we need to take stock of what we say, even to each other. What we say must be truth in love spoken at the appropriate time. Steve and Rich explain the power of the tongue and the importance of speaking truth in a loving manner. If this episode convicts you or challenges you like it does for us, ask God to grow you in those areas! Tune in for this powerful episode!
