The Weight of Your Words: Measuring the Impact of What You Say

Rating:
Summary: I will never be the same after reading this book
Review: The power of words is not something that is talked about much. I am an evangelical, Bible teaching pastor and I was trying to find a Bible study on this topic, but there just aren't any out there. This book fills the void with sound teaching from Scripture on topics such as: Lying, Gossip, Slander, Bragging, Exaggeration, Complaining, Using God's Name in Vain, Angry talk, and it provides biblical advice for keeping the tongue under control. It also has a nice study guide in the back, which I am adapting for use in my home Bible study. Strongly recommended reading that has changed the way I think about my speech.

Summary: DESERVES 10 STARS, NOT 5!
Review: This book is VERY in-depth in exposing the various sinful conditions of our hearts and the sins they cause us to commit with our mouths. I thank God for this book and the author. I am amazed at how much insight the author has and I really believe every christian should read this (I really mean that!!). I am only in the 9th chapter (of 12) and I will never be the same! Just since I started reading it my sensitivity has been so heightened to what I say and I can sense a stronger presence of the Lord in my life because of it. I could go on and on but I don't have the space. My personal thanks to the author, Joseph M. Stowell, for being obedient to the Lord in blessing the body of Christ with this book!
