In today’s powerful episode of The Dalon Challenge, we explore the immense power of communication and how our words shape the world around us. Communication is an essential part of life, but do we truly understand the weight of our words? Proverbs 18:21 tells us that “The tongue has the power of life and death.” Join us as we dive into how we can use our words to build others up, reflect God’s love and truth, and speak life into the world.
The power and accountability of our words (Proverbs 18:21, Matthew 12:36-37)
The purpose of communication to encourage and heal (Ephesians 4:29)
How Jesus demonstrated the power of grace-filled speech in His interactions with others (John 8:11, John 9:7)
By the end of the episode, you’ll be challenged to choose your words wisely, speak truth with grace, and be intentional with your communication to bring healing and restoration to others.
