Description:
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. One response can change everything. A sentence can heal—or wound. A pause can save—or cost—relationships. And a single reaction can alter the direction of a life. In If Only I Had Responded Differently, John James Abekah explores the hidden power of our responses—why moments escalate, how wisdom de-escalates, and how a gentle answer can reshape outcomes we thought were already lost. Drawing from biblical wisdom, real-life insight, and the example of Jesus Christ—the Master of wise responses—this book shows how to: Respond instead of react under pressure Speak truth without anger or shame Disarm hostility with humility and calm Turn regret into wisdom for the future Become known as someone whose words bring peace This is not a book about clever comebacks. It is a book about becoming—becoming a person whose words heal, whose tone steadies, and whose responses reflect wisdom. Because life is not only shaped by what happens to us, but by how we answer when it does. And the next response may still change everything. Duration - 3h 8m. Author - JOHN JAMES ABEKAH. Narrator - Digital Voice Alistair G. Published Date - Wednesday, 28 January 2026. Copyright - © 2026 JOHN JAMES ABEKAH ©.
