The Power of Your Words | Let’s Talk! Ep. 1

Aug 12, 2026  •  Pastor Dale Oquist, Pastor Dawson Oquist, Pastor Billy Honaker

Words have more power than we often realize.


In the first episode of Let’s Talk, Pastors Billy, Dale, and Dawson continue the conversation from James 3 and explore how the words we speak, and the words we receive, can shape the direction of our lives.


Pastor Dale shares how unexpected conversations helped confirm God’s call to Fresno, Dawson reflects on a simple conversation that changed the direction of his college experience, and the conversation turns to gossip, negative reports, daily decisions, and the importance of allowing the Holy Spirit to guide our words.


The takeaway is simple: small things are big things.

Our words can bring life, shape culture, and influence people in ways we may never fully see.


Scripture: James 3:1-12

Series: Small Things Make a Big Difference
