Words have the power to breathe life or inflict lasting wounds. In this episode of "Beyond the Sermon", hosts Tami DeLeeuw, Cathy Musto, and Steve Musto dive into Proverbs 10:11 to examine the deep impact our words have on our relationships, our mindsets, and our spiritual walk.

In this episode, the team explores:

The Weight of Words: Why do certain comments—both positive and negative—stay imprinted on our souls for decades?

"Punches That Land": How to process unexpected criticism, identify root hurts, and discern when a comment holds a grain of truth versus when it’s just destructive.

Boundaries & Discernment: What does biblical wisdom look like when dealing with people who consistently speak hurtful or toxic words?

The Power of Consumption: How the media, culture, and environments we surround ourselves with directly shape the language that flows out of us.

Rehearsing Truth: How to stop replaying old hurts on loop and intentionally fill your mind with God's truth.

Join us for a candid, encouraging conversation on taming the tongue, setting healthy boundaries, and learning to speak words of life!
