The idea of corrupt communication is something that hits close to home for many people. In Ephesians 4:29, Paul says:

“Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.”

It’s a powerful challenge, right? In a world where harsh words, gossip, sarcasm, or negativity are so easy to fall into, Paul reminds us that our words should build up, not tear down.
