Watch What You Say

Ephesians 4:29-"Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen."

The goal in Christian communication is not merely clarity, but encouragment based on what the needs of the other person are. When we speak to others we should let our words and our speech be for the benefit of others and to be an encouragement to the people we converse with in our daily lives. People can be affected both in a positive way and/or a negative way, simply based on what we say.
