Words are powerful, very powerful! The words we use can uplift, encourage, comfort, teach, and guide the people around us and often will have long-lasting effects on your family, friends, and peers. How you use your words define you as a person, a leader, as a friend, coworker, etc. We speak about sixteen thousand words a day, almost six million words a year, enough to recite the Bible over seven times a year. How do we plan on using these sixteen thousand words every day? God tells us how to use these words to maximize our communication skills.

The truth is, there are over seven billion people in the world and not one thinks that same way you do. Therefore, to communicate effectively, we must know the thoughts, attitudes, emotions, and spiritual levels of the people with whom we interact. We do this through caring and listening with a godly attitude. This book describes how we as Christians""and quite frankly non-Christians""can effectively communicate with virtually everyone they speak to.

God has much to say about the words we use and how to use them, and we discuss these throughout the book. The Word says in James 1:26, "If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not keep a tight rein on his tongue deceives himself and his religion is worthless." Our religion is not worthless; through the Holy Spirit, it is our responsibility to use our words wisely. This book will help you build better relationships, be more a more effective communicator, and to further the Gospel of Christ by living and talking the way God wants you to.

Use those sixteen thousand words you speak every day to help, guide, encourage, teach, comfort, edify, spread the Gospel, and improve the life of those around you. This book will help you do just that!
