Podcasts about Use Your Words

Join us for Episode #4246 of Day1, featuring Rev. Dr. Charles A. Wiley III of the Alliance for Christian Media in Atlanta, GA, preaching "Use Your Words" on Romans 10:5-17. As the 11th Sunday after Pentecost approaches, Wiley challenges mainline Protestants' quiet discomfort with evangelism, unpacking Paul's insistence that faith is both lived and spoken. Drawing on a misattributed quote from St. Francis of Assisi, he makes a compelling case for verbal proclamation alongside faithful action.

Have you ever wished your partner could read your mind in the bedroom? You're not alone. One of the biggest obstacles to a satisfying sex life isn't technique—it's communication. In this episode of The Dildo Whisperer, we're talking about how to ask for what you want in bed without feeling awkward, selfish, or embarrassed. From overcoming shame and fear of rejection to learning how to give constructive feedback and discuss fantasies, desires, and boundaries, we'll explore practical ways to improve communication and strengthen intimacy. Whether you're in a long-term relationship, dating someone new, or simply trying to better understand your own needs, this episode will help you find the words to advocate for your pleasure and create more satisfying sexual experiences. Because great sex doesn't come from mind reading—it comes from honest conversations. Tune in and discover why using your words may be the sexiest thing you can do. Send the us your sex and relationship questions and maybe you will inspire the next episode of The Dildo Whisperer. We have two ways to reach the show.

What if the words you speak are the invisible prison keeping you from better relationships, freedom, and the life you were born to live?Josh Trent welcomes Mindset Coach and Language Expert Mark England on the Wellness and Wisdom Podcast, episode 809, to reveal how the specific words you speak every day are silently building either your freedom or your prison, why the English language as most people use it functions as a slave language rooted in  the fear of not being good enough, and how changing even one word in the story you tell yourself can dissolve a pattern that has been running your life.

Are your children constantly bickering over toys, seats, or "who started it"? Dr. Roger Smith shares the essential strategy for moving from physical scraps to verbal solutions. In this episode, learn how to facilitate intentional conflict resolution sessions where children are taught to pause, listen to each other's perspectives, and analyze their own motivations. By asking, "What did you want to happen?" and "How did that make them feel?", you can transform daily bickering into a training ground for leadership and communication. Discover why teaching your kids to use words effectively is the greatest skill you can give the leaders of tomorrow.

I'll share some experiences I've had with people and words while getting ready for my move- 1 week from today. Words are SOOOO important! Michelle@Growby1.comWorking With Angel EnergyIntuitive Reading

Our words have power—to either build up or break down. In today's prayer, Vivian Bricker reflects on how the wisdom passed down from her mother shaped her own understanding of the importance of speech, and how Scripture calls us to use our tongues as trees of life. Whether we’ve been wounded by words or regret the ones we’ve spoken, there is hope and healing through Christ. By surrendering our speech to Him, we allow God to shape our words into sources of encouragement, compassion, and truth. Today's Prayer Leans on This Bible Verse:

July 13, 2025 Steve Barbee

We tell kids to “use your words” — but the truth is, most adults still don't know how. We hide our feelings, fear sounding “needy,” and hope our partners will just know what we need — then feel hurt or resentful when they don't. In this episode, I unpack why adult communication breaks down so often, how unmet needs and unspoken feelings quietly sabotage our relationships, and why using your words — with clarity, vulnerability, and skill — can be the most powerful thing you do to get closer, feel seen, and have your needs met. You'll learn how Nonviolent Communication (NVC) helps you speak honestly without starting a fight, and how this one shift — using your words intentionally — can change everything in your relationship, from tension, frustration, and resentment to clarity, closeness, and care.

Elder Rueben Cano www.faithfamilymaui.com

People suggest you say certain things to manifest things in your life. We are made in Gods image, he speaks things into existence, we have that power.

In this episode, Isa breaks down one of the most common phrases we say in early childhood classrooms — “Use your words” — and why it often misses the mark. With a mix of real-life classroom moments and practical tools, you'll learn why this phrase doesn't actually teach communication and what to say instead to help young children express themselves with confidence. Whether you're a new teacher or a seasoned pro, this episode will help you replace vague reminders with language-rich, emotionally supportive strategies that work.The Teachers Lounge – • Offering early education teachers a tool to set your classroom onto a path of success and build a cohesive and strong team of educators.

In this episode, we dive deep into the heart of creation—the power of your words. Every word you speak sends ripples into the universe, shaping reality like the breath of wind across still waters. With every syllable, you either nurture life or cast shadows. Can you hear it? The whisper of spiritual law in Proverbs, reminding us that death and life rest on our tongues. Today, we explore how to speak words that heal, words that build, words that manifest your highest self. Close your eyes, feel the energy of your voice, and let's transform the world through the power of the spoken word.We would love to know what you think. Your opinion is important.

Hey y'all, it's Ashley Kirkwood back with another fire episode of the Speak Your Way to Cash Podcast!

It's basketball season, Neighbor, and our NCAA bracket is looking sad! But legend has it, the Branyan kids once predicted all four of the Final Four teams and won enough money for John to retire for about two hours. Also, there is DRAMA among the McKinney/West/Farkas cousins. (No, nothing scandalous.) A group of actors, aged 13 and under, are producing their own musical theater show. It's the most adorable thing we've seen in a while. Next: If a person can't explain WHY the believe something, do they really even believe it? Use your words, Pkarlgh! Pictures aren't really worth 1000 words, and you CAN'T preach the Gospel silently... Contact the Comedian's family by emailing nextdoor@johnbranyan.com
