Forget the old rhyme about sticks and stones— your words can leave marks we carry for years. Words matter; in fact, they carry the power of life and death. Drawing from Proverbs 18:21 and Ephesians 4:29, we walk through the real stakes of using careless words: blessing or cursing, building up or tearing down, soothing a situation or inflaming it. Along the way, we unpack negativity bias—the brain’s tilt toward the harsh and the hurtful—and show how a specific word choice can counterbalance that pull.
You’ll hear a simple story about a compliment that changed a teenager’s day and why small, truthful affirmations carry outsized power.
We close with Colossians 4:6 as a guide for wholesome conversations. Start today by choosing words that promote life and well-being. If something here helped, subscribe, share the show, and text us what’s on your heart so we can keep walking this road together.
