CONTRARY | Words (Ep 2)

Today is about the weightiness of words, and how our culture would like us to believe that what you do is more important than what you say, but God commands us to speak on multiple occasions. While our actions are of course incredibly important, we must use our words to evangelize, to confess, to pray, to encourage, to sing praises, and to fill the earth with His glory...for if we are silent, “even the rocks will cry out!” (Luke 19:40). So may we use our words for our Savior, Jesus Christ, who is called The Word, and not let culture strip them of their power.
