    Today we get to the topic of wisdom. And of all the topics he has discussed, wisdom could be the most important stimulus for spiritual growth. In other words if you plan to grow in the faith it will not happen if you do not first get wisdom.

    In James chapter 3, James contrasts two kinds of wisdom: worldly wisdom and godly wisdom. The fruits that result from these two kinds of wisdom couldn't be any more different from each other.

    A. Let’s start our sermon this morning with a quote: “Life is hard and it’s harder when you’re stupid.” 1. We chuckle at that because we all know it’s true. 2. Some people attribute that quote to John Wayne. 3. I don’t know if the Duke did or didn’t say those words. 4. The line doesn’t appear in ...read more

     | 961 views

    The book of Proverbs often has justice and righteousness together, but why? What can we learn from these two vital attributes?

    Wisdom has many facets. Today we are going to consider justice. Justice means to do right, live right, and practice righteous behavior. Character is the foundation of the Christian life and behavior is the tangible expression of the same life. Wisdom is demonstrated in one’s behavior. I. THE WISE ...read more
