After watching a particularly tragic drama unfold as the result of gossip, I decided there is no area in life where we need more help than with the "slips" of the tongue. Not long after I wrote a little pamphlet on this subject and fired off the finished piece to a fried. I soon received his elated response, "This has to be a book"
I considered his suggestion and agreed.
This little mini-book is the result. As you read, you will discover the major sins of the tongue and how they can damage others. Gossip, tale bearing, slander, whispering, and the activity of busybodies are among the debilitating issues exposed.
My heartfelt prayer is that my words will serve as a sun whose light and heat burn away the blinding fog that has been surrounding this issue for far too long. Gossip, slander, and other sins of the tongue do not have to be named among your favorite pastimes. You can expel them from your life forever and enjoy a rich, promising future of untold potential. So start now...read every page of this mini-book closely, examine yourself, and your life will never be the same.

So, You can't quite get over it?
After twenty years as a pastor, Jeff Wickwire has seen over and over again the devastating consequences of unresolved hurts- to churches and to individuals. But he has also experienced the tremendous rewards that come to those who handle offense God's way.
In Making It Right When You Feel Wronged, he leads you in an exploration of Bible characters faced with the challenge of dealing with many different offenses. Discover how these people confronted their offenders, the consequences they faced for their actions and what Jesus taught about handling hurts. You will come away with specific steps to follow on the path toward the freedom that comes only in forgiveness, remembering that your future does not depend on what's happened to you, but on how you respond to it.

Start Looking forward to the life God has for you!
God created you with a great future planned for your life. What you might not realize is that the enemy also has a plan for you-to steal, kill and destroy that future. One of his most effective tactics is to keep you looking backward to the past with would-have-beens, could-have-beens and should-have-beens. This "rearview mirror" focus robs you of present happiness and future promise.
The Windshield Is Bigger Than The Rearview Mirror highlights six chains Satan uses to keep people tied to the past: inordinate attachments, past successes, heartbreak, failure, trauma and bitterness. Using powerful illustrations from the Bible and from candid personal experience, Jeff Wickwire shows how you can break free from these chains to embrace the future God intended.
