The Scuttlebutt Letters : Words to a Wild Tongue
In the style of The Screwtape Letters, with a satire that will make you both cringe and laugh-out-loud, Natalie Brand demonstrates the havoc unleashed by careless words. �Scuttlebutt (naval slang for the ship's gossip) is the affectionate nickname given to the Tongue by the Heart, as he reprimands the Tongue for steering the whole person into catastrophe; enjoying morsels of gossip, creating smokescreens of lies. From the Bible's teaching on speech,particularly the Proverbs, the reader will taste the bitter destruction of the Tongue. �But as the Heart rebukes the Tongue it becomes increasingly clear that something isn't right . there is �another villain, a deeper poison, lurking within. What can be done if the Tongue remains untameable? Will the Heart get away with his hypocrisy? Is there redemption for either?�An immensely challenging little book for anyone with a tongue . or a heart!
