One of my favorite books to gift. Something to think about ... Are you a part of the problem or the

This is a great gift for people who have the challenge of taming their tongues. Don't complain or gossip about them. Gift them instead. They'll appreciate you eventually.

A Not So Tame Book Of Reminders

When Deborah contacted me, asking for permission to include one of my poems, "Hasty Words", in her workbook (a supplement to this book, due out in September 2007), I was shocked, yet thrilled at the request, and I eagerly complied. She even sent me an autographed copy of "30 Days To Taming Your Tongue". (Thank you so much, Deborah) I finally found the time to sit and read the book, and I must say, I was impressed. Her writing style is "user friendly" to all us sinners, and as I was reading, I realized she even had an adorable sense of humor. The way she includes her own personal experiences, and her struggles to tame her own tongue, made the book less of a "preaching at you" style, and more of just plain good advice on how to deal with "afflictions of the mouth". A truly enjoyable read and I highly recommend it to everyone...because we all have tongues that need to be tamed in one way or another. Joyce Marie Taylor-Author and Poet

taming your tongue

The book was very helpful to me. In my life I have recieved criticism for excessive talking. I was interested in self improvement. I learned several valuable tips and had never heard the one that a silent tongue is just as bad as talking too much. I agree that it is not as common of a problem but a person should speak when it prevents harm. This book is an excellent reference for using the gift of speech in a christian manner.

AWESOME!

I have struggled with taming my tongue, for years. This book was a great find! I read a chapter every night before bed, and focus on that chapter the next day. Each chapter builds off the previous ones in a very helpful way.

Highly Relevant

Though this book is based on Christian principles, I believe even non-religious people will find it helpful and relevant. After all, this book isn't a Bible-thumping denunciation of everything non-Christian. Nor is it steeped in stereotypical "holier-than-thou" Christian morality. Rather, it's about self-awareness and consideration for others. It's about how cutting out negative speech has the potential of enhancing your life and the lives of those around you. I think those things never hurt anyone, regardless of religious affiliation. Thus, I highly recommend this book to anyone who has ever been the giver or receiver of hurtful comments and is looking for practical solutions to this age-old problem - taming the tongue.

taming book on target

This is book is a great read. Quick and easy with relevant issues on the ways remarks and conversations can be improved in our daily lives with a Christ-like focus and effort. It's a pretty awakening text with a checklist and appendix in the back to help you in the behaviour changes.
