The sermon emphasizes how our words can build up or tear down others, highlighting the impact of positive encouragement and the dangers of negativity. Pastor Phil uses analogies of a bit in a horse's mouth, a ship's rudder, and a spark igniting a forest fire to illustrate the control and consequences of our speech. He concludes by urging the congregation to bridle their tongues and align their words with their faith. 00:00 - Pre-sermon 00:00 - The Parrot That Talked Bad 05:38 - Your tongue is like a wild animal 11:48 - Your Tongue is a Fire and Words Spread 15:47 - Criticizing Others 22:08 - Speech Lessons for Christians 26:35 - Post-sermon
