The Idle Talk Series
A Collection of Stories
The Idle Talk Series is a collection of stories written as short stories. They discuss how negative talk effects people. It was inspired by Ephesians 4:29… (CEV) Stop all your dirty talk. Say the right thing at the right time and help others by what you say.
---
Other collections that could come in the series discuss, accusations, scandals, betrayal, and backbiting. All of these relate to how we speak to each other. The series focuses on the power of the tongue as James 3:8-9 states… (ERV) But no one can control the tongue. It is wild and evil, full of deadly poison. We use our tongues to praise our Lord and Father, but then we curse people who were created in God’s likeness.
Remember Colossians 4:6 (NCV) When you talk, you should always be kind and pleasant so you will be able to answer everyone in the way you should.
