Wisdom at Home | Week 2: The Power of SpeechProverbs | Sermon by Pastor Craig TurnbullWords shape more than conversations—they shape lives. In Week 2 of Wisdom at Home, Pastor Craig Turnbull walks us through what the book of Proverbs teaches about the power of our speech and why wisdom begins not with better self-control, but with transformed hearts.Scripture reminds us that our words reveal what’s happening beneath the surface. They can bring healing or cause deep wounds, build trust or destroy relationships. Proverbs doesn’t present speech as neutral—it carries real weight, with real consequences.In this message, we explore:Why our words expose the condition of our heartsHow speech has the power to bring life or destructionWhen silence is wiser than speakingWhy timing, tone, and tenderness matter just as much as truthHow true wisdom flows from dependence on Christ, not personal effortThis sermon challenges us to move beyond “trying harder” and instead ask God to do the deeper work only He can do—reshaping our hearts so our words reflect His grace.Whether in our homes, friendships, workplaces, or online, wisdom in speech matters. And the good news is this: what God requires of us, He also supplies in us as we surrender to Him.📖 Scripture Focus: Proverbs (Various), James 3, Matthew 12📍 Series: Wisdom at Home🎙 Speaker: Pastor Craig TurnbullListen, reflect, and invite God to transform not just what you say—but who you’re becoming.Need prayer?
