War of Words: Getting to the Heart of Your Communication Struggles by Paul David Tripp

Book Description:

Second Edition

We speak thousands of words every day.

Few things we do are more important. Underneath the normality of daily speech lies a great struggle-a war of words with high stakes and life-changing consequences.

With characteristic vulnerability and Christ-centeredness, Paul Tripp shows that the gospel can utterly transform the way we communicate. The Word made flesh offers us hope for our words-giving us the power to speak words that restore, words that heal, words that bring life. In our war, the Lord Jesus is the one who gives us the victory.

With the aid of personal assessments and discussion questions, use this incisive book to renew your reliance on your heavenly Father's abundant grace and better pursue speech that honors Christ and benefits others.

Winning the war of words means never forgetting who we are. When we remember that we are what we are because of God's mercy alone, we speak with gentleness and humility as God's restorers.
