With wisdom, heart, and candor, Janell Rardon dives into the needed subject of overcoming hurtful words. I really enjoyed the reflective questions and practical insights in each chapter. Reading this book is a great combination of chatting with an encouraging friend and working with an experienced counselor. Janelle takes the reader through workable and practical questions and information to both understand the issues and hurts that need healing. Each chapter shares a specific practice for overcoming hurtful words and building healthy responses and behaviors. Featuring practical teaching on God's word as it relates to each chapter, Janelle thoroughly gives the reader a biblical foundation to overcome hurt and shame stemming from words that wound. My book is filled with underlined statements I want to remember and apply and I'm enjoying journaling my answers to her insightful questions.

The author really gets to the heart of what matters. Looking forward to enjoying it again as a study with close friends.

Really lame book. Filled with religious references and not too much of a valid insight. If you don't consider yourself a truly devoted person, then skip reading this book.
