12 Ways to Make Your Words Count - 1136

Arlene Knickerbocker examines twelve types of words and what they can do for us. She’s written chapters on creative, relational, expressive, meaningful and trustworthy words. She also discusses valuable, winning, transforming, powerful, hopeful and influential words. An especially helpful chapter is about flaming words--those that cause hurts and other damage. The author relates personal examples of using words that she needed to change. Her young years were difficult and she’d picked up wrong ideas and behaviors. She also shares stories from other people about words that affected their lives. An important discussion in the book shows how our core values create our attitudes and thus our words. We need to understand these core values and instill ones that imitate Jesus and His love. Knickerbocker often mentions it’s impossible to be all we were created to be without a close connection to Christ. Each chapter of 12 Ways to Make Your Words Count deserves daily application. Arlene’s clear writing teaches that improved communication. She includes questions at the end of each chapter to guide readers thinking God has said some day every one of us will give account to Him for everything we’ve said. That truth should fill us with an unquenchable desire to always speak the best words. This book explains how to learn and use those words.
