Eph. 4:29 (NIV)Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.
Camp has taught me that if left to themselves, kids will often choose junk food. At first we all would choose the candy and soda, it tastes sweet, but in the end it is unwholesome. After a while the bodies rebel and the kids head for the salad bar. In life and ministry, the world is full of junk food. Things that we can partake in but are not really helpful. The words we choose to feed others should be helpful, and according to their needs.
