I was listening to Mark Driscoll talk to his congregation (Mars Hill in Seattle) via podcast tonight. His message was about Preaching Jesus, using Paul and the Corinthian Church as an example he showed that it was Jesus that has to be the focus of our preaching. Now I know that most of you reading this understand this truth and so it was with me not a great revelation.
However, one phrase caught my attention. "Hard words make soft people and soft words make hard people." It just hit me on a personal level that I need to speak more truth into the lives of those around me, and I need to listen to more Hard words as well.
Just a thought.
