    The first section of chapter 3 dealing with our speech but in the context of "active" Christian living for others not a totally separate secton

    Speech is the most creative and most destructive force in all of creation. Two little words, "God said" repeated 13 times in Genesis 1-3 and we have our current situation.

    James helps us humble ourselves before God and walk in the faith we hold. This is nowhere truer than in our words.

    Who are you and What is your life? This study of James has been putting me in my place over and over. He does not hesitate to lay it all out there and speak sternly, clearly and honestly to his readers. Today we look at the last seven verses of James 4, that’s verses 11-17. Before we move ...read more

    We might not feel comfortable sharing our faith, but let's make sure that we don't sabotage those who do.

    If there is one word that strikes fear in the hearts of most church goers it is “evangelism”. Most of us understand the necessity of people meeting Jesus. All but the most callous are heartbroken at the thoughts of friends and loved ones spending an eternity far from God. And yet. . ...read more

    Words matter. Proverbs gives us some advice on how to speak well.

    One of the most difficult things to do in life is to control what you say. We do a good job for a while but then in one weak moment and we can do irreparable damage.
