(5-7-23, Sunday) Sermon on the mouth part 2 - Jeff Cochran

Summary

Jeff Cochran's sermon emphasizes the power of the tongue and the importance of guarding both our words and the meditations of our hearts to be acceptable before God. He explores Psalm 19 and Psalm 18, highlighting God as our strength and Redeemer, and discusses the spiritual battle believers face in controlling their speech and thoughts. Drawing from James chapters 1 and 3, he stresses the need for slow speech, bridling the tongue, and the responsibility of teachers who are held to a higher standard.
