Wisdom is the ability to navigate life well. We long to find the right response, the right words, the right approach as we face suffering or success, and as we manage relationships. The New Testament Epistle of James offers us the opportunity to pluck the practical wisdom of a disciple of Jesus and challenges us to make the choice to apply it to our lives everyday. Join us as we examine the tried-and-true wisdom of James—and discover how living out a wise faith can impact all aspects of our lives.
Homework
Seek out opportunities to be a peace maker. Peace does not naturally occur so may you BE a peace maker. May God give you the wisdom and the creativity to lead every relationship and every conversation toward the life-giving shalom of King Jesus — The Price of Peace.
