About this listen

Why Gentle Words? In this episode, I share how a practical decision in my speech therapy career unexpectedly led me deeper into Scripture. What started with two verses in Proverbs slowly unfolded into a bigger exploration of healing words, the Spirit’s breath, and a God who speaks with both power and gentleness. It’s the beginning of a much larger conversation, but it’s also part of the hope behind this podcast.


SCRIPTURES TO REVISIT:

Proverbs 15:4 — A gentle/healing tongue is a tree of life

Proverbs 16:24 — Gracious words are like a honeycomb

John 21:15–17 — The threefold restoration of Peter

Matthew 11:29 — Jesus is “gentle and lowly in heart.”

1 Kings 19 — Elijah encountering God in a gentle whisper

1 Samuel 3 — Samuel learning to recognize the voice of the Lord

Ezekiel 37 — The valley of dry bones (Word spoken, breath given)
