Hey friends! In this episode, Ash Owen is joined by guest Matilda Hosannee as they dive into Colossians 4:6 (MSG): "Make the most of every opportunity. Be gracious in your speech. The goal is to bring out the best in others in a conversation, not put them down, not cut them out." Ash and Matilda discuss how hard it can be to battle having a critical and cynical heart. Together, they explore how our words are a reflection of what’s going on in our hearts. Matilda shares how God has worked in her to transform her speech, helping her use her words to lift others up rather than criticise or become cynical. If you’ve struggled with being overly critical or secretly cynical, this episode will challenge and encourage you to find a new way to speak with grace and kindness.
