Many Christians that are thought to be mature demonstrate immaturity through their speech. James confronts Christians, demanding that they look at what is said and how they say it.
JAMES 3:2-5a A PERFECT CHRISTIAN “We all stumble in many ways. And if anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle his whole body.

This is a continuation of the first sermon in this four part series on Ps. 26. How do we become true worshippers? Worship has to go beyond the four walls of the church building and into our daily lives
