Publisher's summary

"Words are a big deal. They are containers for power, and we have to decide what kind of power we want our words to carry," says Joyce Meyer in Change Your Words, Change Your Life. "I believe that our words can increase or decrease our level of joy. They can affect the answers to our prayers and have a positive or negative effect on our future.... One might say that our words are a movie screen that reveals what we have been thinking and the attitudes we have."

Building on the premises of Power Thoughts and Living Beyond Your Emotions, she examines the tremendous power of words - which are the vehicles that convey our thoughts and emotions - and provides a series of guidelines for making sure that our talk is constructive, healthy, healing, and used to good results. Topics include:

  • The impact of words
  • How to tame your tongue
  • How to be happy
  • When to talk and when not to talk
  • Speaking faith and not fear
  • The corrosion of complaints
  • Do you really have to give your opinion?
  • The importance of keeping your word
  • The power of speaking God's word
  • How to have a smart mouth

In a "Dictionary of God's Word" at the end of the book, Joyce provides dozens of scripture verses, arranged by topic, that she recommends reading and saying out loud as one way of using and claiming healing words.

Great book

I usually enjoy a good 7-24 hour unabridged book, but this book came clipped/bookmarked at 10 minutes. Removing the clip does not work according to "the directions" but it's a great book. I'll listen to someone else until this book gets actually fixed. Thank you for a great book.

Too Religious for me

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

If you are looking to delve deeper into the word of God and applying his message in your life this book might be for you.

Has Change Your Words, Change Your Life turned you off from other books in this genre?

No, but will be more careful to look for the religious messages.

I had a hard time staying awake

I like Joyce Myers teachings. The person reading this book is not good at all. Very mono to and is reading without inflections. I wish Joyce Myers was talking or someone who had a bit more enthusiasm than this person. I'm probably going to exchange this book if I can.

Narrator's Voice was intolerable

Narrator's voice was harch, pitchy and I could not continue after only 3 chapters. I love Joyce Meyer's material, but please, use another narrator. Very disappointed.

If I wanted to be preached to, I'd go to church.

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

I'm perfectly comfortable with a few references to God in any learning material, but this book was scripture after scripture lecturing on how we should live our lives. The title was very misleading.
If you are a worshiper, you'll love it.

What could Joyce Meyer have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Scale back the preaching and make it fact based on psychology and interactions instead of just Gods word.

What didn’t you like about Sandra McCollom’s performance?

It was ok.

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Change Your Words, Change Your Life?

Every one that began with a scripture or a lecture about what God wants us to be.

Any additional comments?

The audio summary did not emphasis the Spiritual reference accurately.
