Your words are not small.

The Afterglow is a reflective podcast from the Echoes of Truth Network, created as a place to sit with the weight of truth after it’s been spoken. Each week, JTfollowsJC and TuneThyHeart unpack what’s been discussed on JT’s Mixtape and then slow things down to process it with humility, discernment, and faith.

In Episode 7, we talk about the power of what comes out of our mouth and why it’s directly connected to what’s in our hearts.

Jesus said:

“It’s not what goes into your mouth that defiles you; you are defiled by the words that come out of your mouth.”
— Matthew 15:11

This applies to more than just what we say out loud.
It also includes what we type online, the comments we leave, and even the casual phrases we repeat like “we’re cooked” or “it’s over.”

As the world gets darker, we’re faced with a real decision:

Will the darkness taint us…
or will we remain the light of the world?

Because God spoke the heavens and earth into existence and our words carry weight too.

• Why our words reveal our hearts

• Why typed words still matter spiritually

• Doom speech vs discernment

• Speaking truth without partnering with darkness

• Speaking life without denying reality

• How to carry hope above circumstances

• Prayer requests, praise reports, and walking this out together

Proverbs 18:21 “The tongue can bring death or life…”
Luke 6:45 “What you say flows from what is in your heart.”
Ephesians 4:29 “Let everything you say be good and helpful…”

May the noise fade and only the love of Jesus remain.
