If you can’t say anything nice what does that say about 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.

Ask a friend if you suffer with Chronic Critique Syndrome (CCS). Ask God to change your heart. You may even need to ask for forgiveness.
Verse for the week: 1 Thessalonians 5:11
This week and always, may we not be quick to criticize but may the words of our mouth bring glory to God and life to others.
