Discussion Questions Challenge Commit to Memory

---

JAN. 19/20

Our words and the tone we use to speak them can either build others up or tear others down. They are a direct reflection of what’s going on in our hearts – and they have the ability to make or break any relationship.

Discussion Questions 1. How have reckless words from others impacted you? How have you seen your own reckless words impact others? 2. Read Luke 6:45. What kind of things are you putting into your heart, day in and day out (i.e., TV shows/movie/books/music)? How does that affect the words that come out of your mouth? What steps do you need to take to fill up your heart with good? 3. Who do you need to speak uplifting words to this week? 4. What are 1-2 ways you can begin to apply what you learned in the message this week?

Challenge Identify 1-2 places where you lost control of your words the most frequently. Write out Proverbs 15:1 on a notecard and then put it in those places to remind yourself about the power of your words.

Commit to Memory Reckless words piece like a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing. Proverbs 12:18
