It's Hard to Lick Your Tongue

The tongue is such a small part of our bodies, and yet it has astonishing power—both to wound and to heal, to bless and to curse. In this teaching, Pastor J.D. walks through James 3 to show us the dangers of the tongue and what it can reveal about the state of our hearts.

Scripture References: James 3:1-18

From Series: "The Book of James: The Gospel from the Outside In"

No other New Testament book is quite like James. Catchy, practical, and in your face, the book of James jumps straight into the nitty gritty of daily life. James takes the lofty doctrines of the gospel and brings them down to earth. You can’t read James without being confronted. James steps on your toes. At times, he punches you in the gut. More than anything, James wants you to do something with the gospel you’ve been given—to live it out. James could have referred to himself as Jesus’ brother. Instead, he calls himself “a servant of God.” And through his book, he’s calling us to do exactly that—to serve God with all of our heart, soul, mind, and strength.
