THE WEIGHT OF YOUR WORDS | WEEK 2

Week 2: Look Who’s Talking 

The source of words determines their weight. Remember who you are and what you represent to the person on the 

other side of you. 

Discussion Questions 

1. The relationship you have with them is not the same relationship they have with you. Who does that statement bring 

to mind? 

2. Good or bad, what has someone said to you that made an impact on your life? Do any of these remind you of words 

that have been spoken to you? 

• “You’re a really good parent.” 

• “I’m so proud of you.” 

• “You embarrassed me tonight.” 

• “I wouldn’t miss it for the world.” 

• “You’re not needed here anymore.” 

3. In which environments or relationships do your words carry the most weight? 

4. Read Ephesians 4:29

Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.

• What observations do you have about this passage? 

5. Where do you need to begin throwing your weighty words around in order to encourage, inspire, and build? 

Source determines weight. • Weight determines impact. • Impact determines outcome.
