When Your Mouth Runs Your Life - 12.17.25 - Good Morning LIVE

Dec 17, 2025    James Epperly

Ever said something and instantly thought, “What did I just say?” In this message from our Adulting series, Pastor James walks through James 3:2–12 and shows how our words reveal the true condition of our hearts.


We unpack three big truths:

What you say is a reflection of who is really in control of your life

What you say can cause destruction like fire and poison in relationships

What you say is a decision to bless or to curse, to build up or to tear down


You’ll learn how the Bible describes the tongue, why gossip is so damaging, and how to use the T.H.I.N.K. filter (Is it True, Helpful, Inspiring, Necessary, Kind?) before you speak, text, or post. Most importantly, you’ll see why only Jesus can truly change your heart so your words start sounding more like Him.


If you’re tired of regretting what comes out of your mouth, this teaching will help you surrender your speech to God and start speaking life instead of death.
