Michael Hyatt is the communication guru who wrote the excellent book Platform – Get Noticed in a Noisy World. Here, he discusses issues in creating slide sets that actually communicate well. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-relationships/parenting-in-bite-sized-chunks-6716 2012-10-08T09:50:33-05:00 We tend to be paralyzed by guilt over the past or anxiety over the future. Why not trust the Lord to cover both of those, and you have a good day today. That's how you build a better future. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-relationships/verbal-vomit-2546 2009-10-02T10:19:42-05:00 If people bled physically every time we wounded them verbally, I wonder what kind of a trail some of us would leave? It's time to listen to ourselves; to face the hypocrisy between our spiritual image and our private trash talk; to seek the forgiveness of the people we've hurt; to make our mouth the new frontier for the Lordship of Jesus Christ. Maybe then what comes out of our mouth will not only make us feel better, it will make them feel better too. http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ephesians%205:4-5&version=NIV 2009-08-04T16:42:01-05:00 The tongue is a powerful thing and the words we use when we talk are very important. We are told that as Christians we should be careful of our tongues. We should avoid, obscenity, foolish talk and coarse language. We should instead talk about what we are thankful for.
