As a believer in Christ, we have been given all of God's promises. This book solidifies that we are enough through Him.

Whether you have experienced any of God's promises or just a few of them, we know God have given us power through our voices. "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love that shall eat the fruit thereof (Prov.

18:21 ESV). " Through His words we are promised change if we meditate on them, because they will never return empty, but rather succeed.

Communication and technology will continue to change, as much as it does, leaders need to be prepared to cultivate too. Leaders must be ready to face conflict, complex situations, and know their role of leading.

In this book, communication considers all aspects of life to include the home, workplace, and place of faith/worship. It is imperative to cover each domain as roles may change, but using strategic methods to add value and be heard is significant.

It is equally important to always think before we speak, listen for understanding, respect hierarchy, and let all things be done decently and in order (1 Corinthians 14:40). Using your voice, communicating, and understanding is a start; however, how you leave someone after you speak can have a lasting effect.

"Language is man's way of communicating with his fellow man and it is language alone which separates him from the lower animals. " "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
