Harbor Church Podcast

That's right: we're talking money. On a church podcast. Everyone's favorite subject, right?

One of the most powerful (and overlooked disciplines) in the Christian life is verbal discipline. The Bible says your words aren't neutral... they're either worship or something else entirely.In this message, Pastor Josh unpacks what Scripture teaches about the power of the tongue: what we should say, what we shouldn't, and why it matters more than we think. From winning arguments to losing relationships, to speaking life or death, the truth is: every word reveals who (or what) you're really worshiping.If you're new to Harbor or want to get connected in any way click this link to get your New Here gift, find upcoming events or get involved!https://harborchurch.com/connect

Tune in as Pastor Josh and Katie Rose take a look in the mirror and help find areas where we all tend to make a mess out of the good things God has to offer.If you're new to Harbor or want to get connected in any way click this link to get your New Here gift, find upcoming events or get involved!https://harborchurch.com/connect

We are so quick to put the weight on ourselves — to earn more, fix more, build more, be more. But what if that's the harder way?

Don't miss this wake-up call — especially if you're tired from carrying it all.If you're new to Harbor or want to get connected in any way click this link to get your New Here gift, find upcoming events or get involved!https://harborchurch.com/connect
