Episode 218 - Words that Shape a Home

Welcome to Daily Growth Point, I’m Pastor John Bingham.Do you remember the saying, “Sticks and stones my break my bones, but words can never hurt me.” Yet, the truth is words are powerful. A single sentence can linger in someone’s heart for years. That one line forgotten by you will be remembered for a lifetime. In the home, words don’t just communicate—they create the atmosphere. Encouraging words bring life. Harsh words bring hurt. And often, it’s not what we say—but how we say it.The Bible reminds us in Proverbs 18:21, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue…”Every day, we’re shaping our homes with our words.So ask yourself—are your words building up… or tearing down?Choose words that give life.
