Matthew Chapter 8 Power of (One) Word

One word can have a lasting effect. It's one reason we should choose our words wisely and with thought. If our words offer encouragement then they can change the course of a life. In this episode we discuss the power of Jesus' one word to heal followed up with a discussion as to why it was not wise or well thought out to tell Christ, "I will follow you wherever you go." When I was a child (maybe 7 years old) I once told my Dad I could run faster than his truck - he raced me down the street and I lost bad. I learned I wasn't as impressive as I thought. Jesus uses this tact as well.
