Words Change Everything

What comes out of your mouth when life hits you hardest?
We all have those moments—busted knuckles on an engine block, an unexpected shock, or devastating news—when our words reveal what's truly inside us. This raw, authentic episode explores the power of our speech during painful transitions by examining the most profound transition in history: Jesus on the cross.
Beginning with a disarmingly honest story about cursing after a repair-gone-wrong, we journey through the process of spiritual transformation that happens in every believer's life. Those moments when our words surprise even ourselves reveal the ongoing sanctification process as God patiently works to purify us from the inside out. Like knuckles against a hot engine, life's challenges expose what's truly within us.
The focal point becomes the seven statements Jesus made while experiencing the ultimate painful transition—crucifixion. From "Father, forgive them" to "It is finished," each utterance reveals a supernatural response to injustice, pain, and abandonment. These weren't just poetic last words; they were demonstrations of the creative power our speech carries, even in our darkest moments. Modern science confirms what Scripture has always taught—our words can literally alter our physical reality down to the DNA level.
Whether you're going through a personal crucible or simply want to harness the transformative power of faith-filled speech, this episode offers practical insight from history's defining moment. Join us as we begin a seven-part journey through Jesus' final words and discover how they can revolutionize your response to life's painful transitions.
