Loud Mouth Week 4

So we are on our last week of Loud Mouth. In this series we have been looking at our words and how they effect others and ourselves.

This week we talked about how on our own it is impossible to control our words, but yet it is so important because our words declare our destiny. James tells us that just like the rutter of a ship is small but it controls the whole ship, so the same is with our tongues.

So what do we do? It is impossible on our own. Jesus was talking and he said with people it is impossible but with God all things are possible.

Surrender is the key word here. We have all surrendered to something, lifestyle, money, relationships, status, the list goes on and on. What are you surrendering to? What have you not surrendered to Christ? Have you surrendered at all?

We wanna hear from you. What is going on in your life? What have you thought of this series? What has God taught you through this? What are you gonna do about it?

Be Careful, Loud Mouth,

We saw another incredibly dumb video tonight. But what we talked about is that we have to be careful when words seem to pretty, because they might be. We have to watch out that we don't give in to people slick tongues. When words are like butter, when its greasy.

Girls you have to watch out for guys saying things just so they can get things. We are smarter than we look.

Guys you have to listen for those words coming out of the mouths of women that are only there to seduce you, to lure you away from what really matters.

So lets hear it. Whats your story? Have you twisted words? Have you been greasy? Have you been lured in by words ever? Have your friends?
