This user-friendly 4 week study looks at the verses on the tongue/speech in Proverbs. Each day can be completed in 10-15 minutes. Nancy counters the age-old problem of gossip, and passing along too much information, with graceful truth. She offers solid scriptural advice that's sprinkled with personal examples and application. I've almost completed the second week and am loving it!

The Power of Words might be a short devotional but it is power packed with awareness of the blessings and dangers from our small but powerful tongue. Nancy Leigh DeMoss does a wonderful job of communicating from God's word how impactful our words can be.
This book has changed me and helped to begin taming my tongue.
Thanks to Nancy and God's word.

THIS is the book that I really needed! Shows how to use words in the RIGHT way! I recommend this to EVERYone! We all need a little help in this area.
God bless!

Initially purchased this book for myself and asked my daughter (age 14) if she would like to do it with me. She agreed and then we decided to turn it into a teen study. She invited friends from 7th-11th grade to join her for a summer Bible study (which she then led). They met once a week for 5 weeks and went over it as a group. 11 girls came in total. It was a great thing for them to use on their own. They did the homework each week and then went through it together. Even the sample prayers at the end of each week were great for them because they felt more comfortable reading those rather than praying on their own. The girls really enjoyed going through it together and we have already seen them holding each other accountable to what they learned (by not allowing gossip to occur, etc.) They all expressed a desire for the group to continue and have talked about doing it again next year. Perhaps we'll use her other short study, "Does God Care What I Wear." Sure to be another good one!
