"Real Faith for the Real World: Every Word You Speak Has a Cost"

You see it every day. The news, the commentary, the reactions, the words people throw out without thinking. In this week's episode of "Courageous Christianity with Richard Mendelow," host Colonel Richard J. Mendelow is joined by his wingman Christy Mendelow and guest Jeff Egli. They look at a real-world situation—the release of Dennis Coyle after being detained in Afghanistan—and what followed in the comments on social media. What people chose to say. How quickly it turned. How easily words were used to tear down a man most don't even know. It is a clear example of what we're surrounded by—and how quickly things can go in the wrong direction. Colonel Mendelow, Christy, and Jeff examine what unfolded—and the damage it does—through the biblical lens of God's Word. What that examination brings into focus is something every man deals with—the weight of his own words. You can't fight fire with fire. More words don't fix things. Scripture is clear: be quick to listen, slow to speak, and measured in how you respond. Every Christian man needs to hear this conversation.
