Schütze dich vor verletzenden Worten

2024/10/27 | Leo Bigger

In this sermon Leo Bigger helps you Schütze dich vor verletzenden Worten — protect your heart from hurtful words by grounding your identity in Jesus. Main idea: words stick in your amygdala and shape your life, so you must actively guard your heart (Proverbs 4:23) and follow Jesus’ example of daily communion with the Father (Colossians 3; Matthew 27:39–44). Practical takeaway: start each day in prayer and Scripture, consciously “strip off” offensive words, build a reflex to ask the Holy Spirit whether a remark is destructive or corrective, and get pastoral care for sticky wounds. Gentle call to reflection/action: choose to proclaim God’s promises, wear your identity as God’s child, and take one small step today—pray 10–12 minutes tomorrow morning and notice the change.
