'Few people use words wisely. Those who do are like a 'rare jewel,' as the Scriptures say (Proverbs 20:15). Short, insightful, and aimed at the heart, Karen Ehman's brand new devotional, Zip It, offers hope to those of us who want to be that 'rare jewel.' Powerful!' -- Patrick and Ruth Schwenk, founders of TheBetterMom.com and ForTheFamily.org; coauthors, For Better or For Kids
'Karen Ehman combines biblical depth and relational breadth, then wraps it all in practical application, making Zip It the complete package! In it, Karen has identified all the nuances of our speech, especially those with potential to harm, calling us out in the very kindest way, and offering hope for our wayward tongues. The right word in the right manner at the right moment has the power to transform lives. I'm so grateful to Karen for inviting us to a place of loveliness and grace with our words in a world that so desperately needs both.' -- Glynnis Whitwer, Executive Director of Communications, Proverbs 31 Ministries; Senior Editor, Encouragement for Today online devotions; editor, The NIV Real-Life Devotional Bible for Women
'Karen Ehman teaches God's truth in an authentic, practical, humorous, yet very relational way. In her new book, Zip It, Karen guides us through Scriptures concerning the tongue, while also providing application-oriented takeaways and helpful lessons for our lips. Not only did Zip It inspire me to choose my words more carefully and prayerfully--especially when Facebook makes me feisty--but I also can't wait to read it with my two tween daughters. This devotion will be a 'go-to' for many years to come. Highly recommend!' -- Cindy Bultema, Bible teacher, speaker, and author of Red Hot Faith and Live Full, Walk Free: Set Apart in a Sin-Soaked World
'Karen equips us with takeaways, lessons, and prayers to ensure the words we speak not only please the Lord but also bless and encourage others. I especially love her challenge to create a 'word-robe' (a word wardrobe) within our hearts and fill it with biblical truths and promises tailored to meet our needs and circumstances.' -- Wendy Blight, Proverbs 31 Ministries First 5 Writing Team; author, I Know His Name: Discovering Power in the Name of God
'Karen has done it again! In her coffee-shop-chat style, Karen's latest devotional encourages us to use our words wisely. With her perfect blend of teaching and transparency, Karen leads with wisdom and wit. I felt convicted but hopeful that this is a change that is biblical and possible!' -- Whitney Capps, national speaker for Proverbs 31 Ministries and writer for their First 5 app
'Our words are a powerful weapon--for good or for evil. To wield our weapons properly, we need to allow God to steer our speech, aligning our words with his will. Karen Ehman has given us an important tool in this quest. Zip It takes us on a 40-day devotional journey through the Bible, giving us biblical direction, questions for reflection, and a daily challenge to ponder as we discover what to say, God's way of saying it, and when we'd better just shut our mouths.' -- Dr. Tony Evans, senior pastor, Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship, Dallas; founder, The Urban Alternative; former chaplain, Dallas Cowboys; chaplain, Dallas Mavericks; author, Watch Your Mouth: Understanding the Power of the Tongue
'Our words are directly tied to the condition of our relationship with Jesus. The 40-challenge of Zip It arrives at a great time in the history of the world. Social media, circles of friendships, and family relationships are built and destroyed with the power of our words. Zip It is a great book that will help you have victory of your mouth! Take the challenge!' -- Chrissie Dunham, Global Director of Women's Ministry, Prestonwood Baptist Church
'Our words hold the power to make someone feel like a king or a pauper. This book will help you with 'mouth management' so the ones closest to you will feel like royalty. Karen Ehman is a trusted guide who will teach you when to zip it and when to speak up.' -- Arlene Pellicane, Proverbs 31 Ministries writer and speaker; author, 31 Days to Becoming a Happy Mom
'This 40-day challenge is just what I need to help me refocus and think through the words I say daily. Karen Ehman's biblical wisdom, mixed with practical insight and everyday applications, helps me see that I can do better. If I follow God's Word and think before I speak, I can learn to zip it and so can you! This is a must-read for all of us.' -- Courtney Joseph, author and blogger, WomenLivingWell.org and GoodMorningGirls.org

Amazing book !
5.0 out of 5 stars The best book ever on the words we speak!
I'm LOVING this book. I was feeling that I was saying too much in my friend groups, complaining and listening to complaints too much and listening to too much social media and I found myself feeling disconnected. I knew God was calling me to repentence and silence...not from talking in itself, but from talking too much about the wrong things disguised as "venting". This book lovingly hits you right where I needed it...in the kisser and offers actionable solutions that can be implemented immediately. I love that the author is authentic and isn't afraid to discuss matters that we all have been guilty of at one time or another. I thank God for placing this beautiful gift within the author to honestly share what you knew in your heart, but may have been afraid to face. Enjoy!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Not Your Average "Watch Your Words" Type of Book- Filled With Ideas on How to Love, Encourage & Uplift With the Words We Speak
Leave it to Karen Ehman to not just write a book on watching our words, but also on how to use our words to scatter kindness, build others up, avoid conflict, love and encourage others, and so much more! This is an author with a heart of gold and a zest for living an others-centered life (as evident in her book Listen, Love, Repeat). This isn't just another ordinary book about watching our words. It's so much deeper and more meaningful than that! It's about love, unity, hope, and kindness in a world that desperately needs all of the above right now! I'm using Zip It as a Lenten devotion and taking part in Karen's #DoingLentTogether challenge on FB. It's a perfect book for that too! I find it so much more enriching to watch what comes out of my mouth for Lent rather than what goes in it! It's a perfect companion to Karen's Keep it Shut book year-round in fact, with easy-to-digest and quick, bite-size devotions that will fit into any busy schedule! HIGHLY recommended!!
Brilliant book!
This book is so very challenging, bringing ways we need to either not use words, or to use them wisely. In 40 easy to read sections, Karen brings down to earth examples from her life, and deeply practical scriptural references, to illustrate her points. Challenging and convicting, yet gentle and encouraging, Karen's writing is sure to stretch and strengthen your spiritual muscles. Highly recommend it, and will read it again.
Zip It
Thank you, Karen. I have enjoyed this Devotion so much. TeresaI had followed along, before, without having a book. I now have the book and plan to read it many times. Praising God for the gift He has put in you to write the way that you do, and how it has blessed me. I also thoroughly enjoyed Keep It Shut.Continued Blessings!Teresa Bogle
