James: Get 'Er Done

All Kinds Of Chaos

James is at it again! He has a real concern for the words that Christians use on themselves, with each other and with the world. Our tongues (James' favourite image for our words) can cause such destruction, and they are nearly impossible to control. What’s the solution? Fortunately, Jesus gets to the root of the problem and to the fix that works.

James 3:1-18

1. How do James’ words make you reflect on what you have said to others (or yourself) in the last few days?

2. Has the Holy Spirit brought to mind a recent (or years ago) incident, in which your words caused hurt, for which you need to repent and seek forgiveness? How will you approach that today?

3. What do your words reveal about your heart?

4. What part of ‘wisdom from heaven’ is most attractive to you this day?

5. How can you encourage each other as Jesus reshapes your heart and your words?
