I have long tried to use Ephesians 4:29 to guide my speech, written and verbal. Sometimes with more success than others. I have tried to explain to my kids why we use certain words and not others in our communication based on this verse.
So I can identify with the family discussion described by Paul Tripp in the following video. It is hilarious. As Steve McCoy says, “Paul Tripp has a potty mouth and he’s right on the money”. If mild expletives of a scatological nature offend your ears, then don’t play this clip. If you want to hear a funny and excellent explication of Ephesians 4:29, please go ahead.
