Just Words...

Do we really realize how much words say about us?

They probably do almost as much as our actions.

What about the words we use as Christians?
Do the words we use in church hinder people from understand God?

Think of some of these words that we probably take for granted:
Testify
Testimony
Salvation
Redemption
Revival
Holy Spirit
Faith
Jesus
God

So if these can hinder, what words could we use?
Hope
Love
Freedom
Peace
Change
Journey
Beliefs

What if the words we used in church and as Christians helped people
feel love, hope and peace?

What if people wanted to know God because we stopped
using words that make them feel smaller and starting using words that inspire?

What words do you use daily that may be hindering others
from coming to know freedom, hope, love, peace, change, and ultimately God?
