Lesson 21. The Discipline Of The Tongue (James 3:1-12) Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Apr 3, 2021

From his discourse on idle faith, James proceeded to discuss the idle speech. The failure o bridle the tongue, mentioned earlier (1:26), is now expanded. As disturbing as those who have faith with no works are those Christians who substitute words for works.

1Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly. 2We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check. 3When we put bits into the mouths of horses ...read more

Seasons Series

Contributed by Ken Ritz on Mar 1, 2016

Part one of a 3 part series leading up to Christmas. Ecclesiastes talks about the seasons of our lives.

Times And Seasons part 1 One of the questions I get most often is, Why can’t I understand what God is doing in my life? It seemed like God was blessing me before, but now he isn't. It seems like my prayers were being answered before, now they aren't. Things used to be easy, now its ...read more

Unwavering Faith Series

Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Nov 18, 2017

Our liberty should 1) Never cause a brother to stumble (v. 13), 2) grieve or be devastated (vv. 14–15); 3) never forfeit our witness for Christ (vv. 16–19), 4) tear down His work (vv. 20–21), or be either 5) denounced or flaunted (vv. 22–23)

Doomsday Shadow

Contributed by Robert Sickler on Nov 5, 2014

What is happening in Christendom today is not an aberration in the history of the church, nor is it irrelevant in respect to what will happen tomorrow. What we do today will have a major impact on the Christianity of our children and our grandchildren.

DOOMSDAY SHADOW ILLUSTRATION As the pastor was summing up the messages and information portion of the morning service he remarked that all church leaders and administrative personnel needed to attend a meeting Thursday evening. It was imperative that they attend. When Thursday evening rolled ...read more

Got Grace? - 2 Peter 1:1-2 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Nov 10, 2024

The Holy Spirit inspired them to say some form of “Grace to you” 31 times in the NT. If it’s that important for us to get more grace, why do we so seldom ask God for more grace in our prayers for ourselves and others? This message aims to open your eyes to the astonishing value of grace.

2 Peter 1:1 Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those equal to us in the faith they have received because of the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ: 2 Grace and peace be yours in abundance through knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord. Introduction Wishing the ...read more

Children And Parents (Ephesians 6:1-4) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Oct 15, 2025

Children obey, and parents (not just fathers) are to instruct in a way that doesn't make their kids angry. Is that even possible? Also: fathers are not the spiritual heads of the house.

Today, we get to continue our Ephesians study by reading about what Paul has to say to one additional pairing in the typical Roman household. Paul addresses children, and parents. The last two weeks, we focused on husbands and wives. We saw that when Paul addressed husbands and wives, he did ...read more

Finding A Mate Series

Contributed by Scott Turansky on Jul 27, 2022

People are dedicating themselves to the Lord and they come to the second most important decision anybody makes in their life, and that is finding a mate.

I suppose one of the most rewarding (should I say?) things that we hear is that a person's getting their life together. You know, you hear about someone that's been having some trouble in their life and now they're getting it together, and you go, “Yes, finally,” is sometimes what we ...read more

Prophecy: Words To Us From God?

Contributed by Dan Erickson on Jan 28, 2001
