The power of words. e.g. The War of the Worlds broadcast in 1938.
Our tongue is a powerful thing.
The tongue may be small but it causes large things to happen.
Flattery and Gossip are destructive,
Criticism can be demotivating.

The main point: what comes out of our mouths reveals what is in our hearts.
Ephesians 4:20
What is edifying or can build up. Encouragement.
It should meet others needs.
Our speech should benefit others
Psalm 40:10
Share with others what God has done for us.
Proverbs 14:20
We need to learn how to listen. We need to first listen.
