DOWNLOAD EBOOKBook Summary The mind is a very rich, very fertile terrain in which anything can spring forth, all-natural and from even just one seed including sin. Since anything can arise so organically, we will not always realize that the thoughts we cultivate and convert into actions are wrong or against God's will. This is very true with GOSSIP. Through the subtlest suggestion or well-placed hint, we can be induced to engage in gossip, talk about other people and their personal lives as if it had been our business in the first place. Soon, our chins will wag against our neighbors, unmindful of the damage that we begin to inflict as soon as we open our mouths. But who is the artful perpetrator who plants these hints in our minds? You will shudder to realize that it is none other than Lucifer himself. It is his plan to attempt to destroy mankind and drive them away from God's grace, a deviously understated tool to control and manipulate mankind and get back on God through thoughts. Mia Stubbs dares to defy the Devil and brings forth an eye-opening revelation to spare mankind from the Devil's devious plans. In this book, she shares what she knows about the effects of gossip, what God thinks about it, and tattles on the True Perpetrator of Gossip. As well, she informs the world on how to distinguish if one is gossiping against his fellow person, and how to quit or avoid forming such a sinful habit. In the process of enlightening the world, Mia Stubbs tells her own experience of gossip and how it has shaped her life. She now presents her tale and everything she knows to comfort and warn.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKKind, encouraging, and humorous, Karen Ehman helps us learn the essential practice of using our words more effectively--alleviating heartache and regret, reducing relational tension and conflict, lessening our stress levels, and growing our relationship with God. From Bible times to modern times women have struggled with their words. What to say and how to say it. What not to say. When it is best to remain silent. And what to do when you've said something you wish you could now take back. In this book a woman whose mouth has gotten her into loads of trouble shares the hows (and how-not-tos) of dealing with the tongue. Beyond just a "how not to gossip" book, this book explores what the Bible says about the many ways we are to use our words and the times when we are to remain silent. Karen will cover using our speech to interact with friends, co-workers, family, and strangers as well as in the many places we use our words in private, in public, online, and in prayer. Even the words we say silently to ourselves. She will address unsolicited opinion-slinging, speaking the truth in love, not saying words just to people-please, and dealing with our verbal anger. Christian women struggle with their mouths. Even though we know that Scripture has much to say about how we are--and are not--to use our words, this is still an immense issue, causing heartache and strain not only in family relationships, but also in friendships, work, and church settings. Also available: Keep It Shut small group video study and study guide.
