Produktbeschreibung

"Words kill, words give life; they are either poison or fruit - you choose." (Proverbs 18:21 MSG)

In this book, discover seven principles that allow you to harness the power of your words. Help people, bring hope, and influence all of your relationships to be healthier than you can imagine.

You will learn that words truly are the most powerful force available to humanity. We can choose to use this force constructively with words of encouragement, or destructively using words of despair. Words have energy and power with the ability to help and to heal, or to hinder, hurt, harm and humiliate. You can change the course of your life and someone else's life with your words. Considering the powerful force of what we say, we have come face-to-face with the responsibility of needing to discipline ourselves to speak in a way that conveys respect, gentleness and humility. One of the clearest signs of a mature person is their ability to use uplifting words that are helpful to all listeners. As Christians, we are called to be kind to all and speak words that offer inspiration, enthusiasm and encouragement. We should never waste our words on trivial matters like coarse joking or gossiping about others; instead, we should choose helpful, healing words that light up this dark world.

You will also learn certain principles that should guide all of our communication with others.

If we use our words as bullets with a feeling of superiority and condemnation, we are not going to be able to restore a relationship to love. However, if we use our words as seeds with a feeling of supportiveness and sincere good will, we can rebuild a relationship in positive and life-affirming ways.

Autorenporträt

Micah Davidson is, first and foremost, a family man. He is the father of four kids and "pop" to one granddaughter. He also loves his church family. Davidson is the founder and currently the lead pastor of Real Life Church which has campuses in Corpus Christi and Austin, Texas, as well as internet viewers from 27 different countries around the world. He started the Corpus church with 30 families, then moved to Austin and launched the second campus in a rented house with 18 people. Real Life currently has 2,000+ who attend and who consider Real Life their home. Davidson has trained church planters and pastors all over the world including in Africa, Central America and Eastern Europe. He has a special place in his heart for his adopted son's village in Ghana where Real Life has created life-giving water wells, held medical clinics, supported schools and started churches. Micah also develops and inspires leaders in secular fields like business, education and philanthropy. Even though he is a sought-after speaker and motivator, his favorite place is home, which is currently Austin. He loves to help people take their next step toward a better life and believes the best way to change the world is one community at a time. Micah has a Ph.D. in Theology and his Master of Divinity with Biblical Languages from Southwestern Seminary in Ft. Worth, Texas. Only his mom calls him "Doctor," since his favorite title is "Pastor." His authentic approach to life and genuine concern for others allows Micah to connect and influence large crowds or small gatherings. His gift can be summed up by someone who recently heard him speak, "To meet him is to change; I came into this room with no hope, and now I have a new vision for my life. I will never be the same." Hopefully, you will never be the same now that you have read Micah's words and "met his heart" in this book.
