Men After God

Speak Life or Stay Silent: Mastering the Power of Your Words


Listen Later

In this episode of the Men After God podcast, Dustin Alley and Luke Sorensen dive into one of the most overlooked yet powerful disciplines of godly manhood: knowing when to speak — and when to stay silent.

From disciplining your kids to navigating marriage conflict, the words you choose (or don’t choose) shape your family, your leadership, and your spiritual legacy. The guys share real-life stories and biblical principles to help you grow in discernment, develop self-control, and walk in wisdom with your speech.

You’ll learn how silence can be a strength, how to speak truth without starting wars, and why surrendering your tongue to God is a mark of spiritual maturity. Whether you’re dealing with anger, miscommunication, or just trying to lead well — this episode will challenge and equip you to speak life or stay silent in the right moments.

🧠 Key Takeaways

✔️ Not every moment requires your opinion
 ✔️ Listening to understand > reacting to win
 ✔️ Silence can be an act of strength, not weakness
 ✔️ Discipline your tone before you discipline your kids
 ✔️ Trust God to handle what your words can't

📖 “Let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger.” — James 1:19
