Why Be Harsh?

What impact do our words have on the people around us? In today’s episode, host Richelle Alessi invites us to reflect on the power of our responses as we explore Proverbs 15:1-2. Together, we’ll learn how choosing a gentle answer can bring peace to our relationships, why self-control is a sign of strength—not weakness—and how our words can build up rather than tear down those we care about. As we continue our journey through Proverbs, we’ll discover practical ways to bring wisdom and grace into our daily interactions.

Join our community as we come together in prayer and devotion, seeking God’s guidance to use our words to edify and bring peace to every area of our lives.
