Honorable Language Douglas W. Phillips
In a new message titled Honorable Language, Peaceful Siblings, and Gracious Wives, Doug Phillips gives clear and practical counsel from the Scriptures on the right and wrong use of the tongue in family relationships. Focusing on communication between husbands and wives, parents and children, and brothers and sisters, Doug explores good and bad examples of speech demonstrated by Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, Vashti and Esther, Nabal and Abigail, and others. He contrasts angry husbands who provoke their children to wrath and contentious wives who berate their husbands with men who communicate hope and vision to their families and women who speak with kindness and win their wayward husbands through meek and chaste speech. He also lays out the danger of sibling rivalries and outlines how brothers and sisters can pursue uplifting speech one toward another. Decrying gossip, he emphasizes the need for circumspect speech that edifies the hearer.
Words build up and tear down, Doug explains, and even when others wrong us, it is the duty of the Christian to speak fitting words of life and encouragement - a tall order, but one we should earnestly pursue.
