À PROPOS DE CET ÉPISODE
Our words have the power to build up or tear down, to give life or deal death. In this sermon from Proverbs, we explore the dark side of that power: harsh words, foolish words, gossip, slander, lies, and flattery. Why do we use our words to wound and manipulate others? And what does the gospel have to say to us both as sinners guilty of these words and as sufferers wounded by them? Christ meets us in both places, forgiving our sinful speech, healing our wounds, and giving us what we so often try to take from others. Ultimately, we don't need to use people to get what we already have in Christ.

Conflict is inevitable because we live as sinners among sinners. But how should Christians respond when we are hurt, offended, or wronged? Proverbs gives us much practical wisdom and direction.
