Watch Your Mouth: Out of the Overflow, with Jason Byerly and Kevin Comp

Locker Room - A Southland Christian Church Podcast

This week on the podcast we’ve invited returning guests Jason Byerly and Kevin Comp to kick off a two-part series called Watch Your Mouth. Even though this series is short, be prepared for it to get into your business and step on your toes.

Today’s episode is about the power of our words—an area that all of us men need to work on.

DISCUSSION GUIDE

The Super Bowl is just a week away. Who are you picking to win? Who will be the MVP? Is the NFL rigged

Three important Questions: What did you learn from Kevin & Jason about how they are investing in their marriages & kids and the men that made an impact in their lives?

What comes to mind when you hear the phrase “Watch your mouth”? Share a story of when your words got you into trouble.

Read Luke 6:45. What would you say your heart is full of based on what comes out of your mouth?

Read James 3:1-12. How have you seen words set things on fire and cause destruction? Why do you think man cannot tame his tongue? If this is impossible for man, what are we to do?

What areas of leadership do you carry? How have you been utilizing your words in these spaces? What did you take from the challenge of Kevin and Jason?

Talk through these Biblical principles. Which of these principles do you need to apply to your life now to watch your mouth?

• Repent, Confess, Let Jesus be Lord of this area of your life. (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:8-9, Psalm 81:13-14)

• Acknowledge the wounds that have come from those who have hurt you and ask God for healing. (2 Corinthians 10:4-5)

• Apply God’s Word and partner with the Holy Spirit. (Romans 12:2, Galatians 5:22-25)
