Do the words we say each day really matter? In today’s episode, host Gaby Alessi invites us to explore the power of our words and the influence of our mindset on what we speak. Together, we'll look at Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 15, where He reminds us that it’s not our situation or what comes into our lives that defines us—but what comes out of our mouths. We’ll discover how our filters—like tiredness, frustration, or even joy—shape our words, and how we can choose to put on a filter of faith, grace, and endurance no matter what we’re facing.
Let’s lean in as a community, praying for God to transform our hearts and speech, so that even in challenging circumstances, our words can be life-giving fountains of hope and encouragement. Join us as we begin our day seeking God’s guidance together in prayer and devotion.
