We often underestimate the power of a single sentence. This week, we dive into James 3 to discuss the "wildfire" in our mouths. We explore the strict judgment facing teachers, the inherent hypocrisy of praising God while slandering neighbors, and the ultimate hope found in Christ—the one who forgives our sins of the tongue and fills us with the "water of life" so we may speak truth in love.

What good is a lion if it’s made of stone? In this episode, we dive into the second chapter of James to tackle one of the most provocative questions in the New Testament: Can a faith without works actually save you?

We explore:

• Why "faith minus works" isn't faith at all.

• The difference between intellectual belief (which even demons have) and saving trust.

• How the "breath of Christ" turns a sedentary, "taxidermied" faith into a living mission.

• Practical ways to be ambassadors of the Gospel in our local communities.

Are you "kissing the hand that is slapping you"? This week, we examine James 2:1–13 and the tendency to faunt over the rich while marginalizing the poor. James argues that partiality isn’t just being rude—it’s a violation of the "royal law" to love your neighbor as yourself.

Join us as we discuss:

• Why "minor" sins of favoritism shatter the whole law like a pane of glass.

• How Jesus fulfilled the law to give us a new "law of liberty".

• Why mercy must have the final word in our church community.

Challenge yourself to move beyond loving neighbors in the abstract and begin truly knowing the brothers and sisters sitting right next to you.
