Primary TextJames 1:19
Listen to the Audio Version:
Don’t Talk With Your Mouth Full
Listen in such a way that others love to speak to you, speak in such a way that others love to listen to you.
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.
