     | 1,730 views

    Words have power. And whether that power accomplishes good or evil depends on where it comes from, and what it is intended to do.

    “Sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me.” You’ve all heard that saying, haven’t you? We’ve probably all used it, in fact - usually when a child comes home from school upset because someone called her a bad name. We do distinguish between words and actions. That is what ...read more

    This sermon explores the power of the tongue and the importance of using it wisely. It emphasizes the need for self-control in speech to promote harmony and avoid destruction.

    Lately, there has been a lot of negative news surrounding the Catholic church, particularly regarding allegations of sexual misconduct by priests.

    Our words have the power to bring life or death. We must be mindful of how we use them, ensuring they reflect our faith and the love of Christ.

    James kicks off by saying that teachers and preachers are gonna be judged more strictly because their words carry a lot of weight. Our words can make a huge difference, and if we can get a handle on what we say, we can control our whole selves. Imagine this: You're playing a video game, and you're ...read more

    Our words have immense power. They can direct, destroy, and reveal the condition of our hearts. We should be intentional with our words, using them to guide others toward God, speak words of encouragement and blessing, and reflect His love and truth.

    Hey guys! Today, we're gonna chat about something we all use every day - words. You know, those things we text, tweet, and sometimes even say out loud. They're more powerful than you might think. They can build up or tear down, create understanding or confusion, and bring people closer to God or ...read more

    As James challenges his readers to have a true religion, he comes to a part of our faith-life that is nearly impossible to control - our tongues.

    Before we dive into the main content of the message today, I want to point out something rather obvious - there are no notes in your bulletins. There is a sense in which this sermon is set up fairly similarly to others - a couple of main points with smaller points, but there is also a sense in ...read more

    James focuses on the leaders of the church as he calls into question the source of wisdom - essentially noting that wisdom from God is drastically different than wisdom of the world.

    There are decisions that all of us make on a daily basis. Some of those are minor and relatively inconsequential, others are major and potentially life altering. Some impact only us (or so we think), where others reap ramifications on our families, church, workplaces, school, community, and more. ...read more

    As Christians, we understand that words matter. They hold immense power in shaping our lives and the lives of those around us. But do we truly grasp the depth of that power? Do we recognize that every word we speak carries the potential to either glorify God or grieve Him?

    The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole body, sets the whole course of one’s life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell

    For many of God's children there is no progress, no forward state, in their spiritual life and in their earthly life, but dryness, weariness, and decay. Thinking about what is the reason, it is not possible to find that reason. But God is in grace to speak on the subject of man's tongue, or ...read more
