Synopsis

"Talk" seems so normal, so ordinary, so harmless. Yet there are few things we do that are more important. And underneath the normality of it all is a great struggle, a war of words that we fight every day.

Who hasn't been hurt by the words of another? Who hasn't regretted something they said? Who hasn't had to referee an argument? Who hasn't wanted to talk seriously with a loved one, yet there seems to be no time?

Recognizing that words are powerful, Paul Tripp shows us how the gospel transforms the way we communicate. Our Lord Jesus Christ, the Word is the only hope for our words. In our war of words, he is the one who gives us the victory. Tripp directs us to a renewed reliance on our heavenly Father's abundant grace and a more Christ-honoring, people-benefiting life of talk.

Goodreads review by Brett on January 28, 2010

Just five pages into War of Words, Paul Tripp makes this astonishing claim: “God has a wonderful plan for our words” (5). Modern evangelicalism is quick to talk about God’s plan–and God’s plans–so this statement doesn’t sound overtly different, provocative, or perhaps even book-worthy. In fact, semi......more

August 2023 Update: We read this for our church's summer book club. Still a great read and a great book to discuss with others. I forgot upon rereading how slow the last 3 chapters are. Just a little repetitive and list-oriented. October 2022: *4.5 stars* "God has a wonderful plan for our words." The......more

Goodreads review by Roxana on May 18, 2022

Complexă. Despre abordarea problemelor de comunicare, dar mai mult decât atât, despre abordarea problemelor inimii. "Viața noastră întreagă va fi determinată de pâinea după care alergăm (spirituală sau materială). Nu există minciuni mai periculoase decât cele care ne îndepărtează de la o speranță plin......more
