Summary
In Episode 6 of the 9941 Podcast, Granger, Tyler, Parker, and AntMan tackle a bold and often uncomfortable question: Can Christians cuss? After a CNN article claimed that swearing may signal intelligence, creativity, and honesty, the guys break down those cultural arguments and compare them directly to Scripture.
From Proverbs and James to Ephesians and Colossians, this episode explores what the Bible says about the tongue, obscene talk, and the condition of the heart. Is profanity just a harmless habit—or does it reveal something deeper? Why do we excuse certain words in adults but cringe when children say them? And what does it mean when the name of Jesus is casually used as an expression of anger?
This conversation moves beyond behavior modification and into transformation. The hosts discuss sanctification, heart posture, media influence, and how what we consume shapes what we speak. If you’ve ever struggled with your language—or wondered whether it even matters—this episode offers a thoughtful, Scripture-centered perspective.

| 0:07.2 | the one and equip the 99 to do the same. Episode number six, we've been rolling. We are on a roll now. |
| 0:14.8 | Yeah, I like the four of them. If we've made it to six, that means we're committed to something here. |
| 0:20.4 | Isn't Jesus supposed to seek the one? |
| 0:23.8 | Well, that's a good point. |
| 0:26.3 | But in the parable, he says, how many of you that had a hundred sheep? |
| 0:30.9 | And so in that analogy, how many of you, if you had a hundred sheep and you lost one, |
| 0:35.4 | wouldn't leave the 99 and go seek the |
| 0:38.3 | one. So yes, of course, Jesus is the great capital S seeker, and we're just the lowercase |
| 0:45.4 | seekers. Like he is the great shepherd, and we are the, you know, the pastors are the lowercase |
| 0:50.8 | shepherds. Yeah, that's helpful. All right. |
| 0:54.7 | So that's all we have today. |

| 0:59.5 | I have a signal group with my college friends. |
| 1:04.8 | And I have many signal groups. |
| 1:06.9 | We probably all do. |
| 1:08.0 | We have a signal group for the production of this podcast, in fact. |
| 1:11.4 | But I have one with all kinds of signal groups with people in the church, with some of the men |
| 1:16.3 | of the church, with different groups of the church. And then I've got my college buddy group. |
| 1:22.0 | Just very different than all the other groups. Go way back. |
