Sermon recap:

Family consisting of a father, mother and two children.

Words have incredible power—they can give life or cause deep hurt. The way we speak reflects who we are, so it’s important to choose our words with care. Gracious, thoughtful speech encourages growth and understanding, while negative or careless words can do lasting harm. As followers of Jesus, we're called to speak in ways that build others up, especially our children. Let’s be mindful, avoid double-speak, and use words that bring hope, healing, and encouragement to those around us.
