The Book of James

“LIVING OUT REAL FAITH IN THE REAL WORLD”

This week’s message explores the power of our words—how they direct our lives, reveal our hearts, and even shape the lives of those around us. Continuing our journey through the Book of James, we dive into James 3:1–12 to see how real faith impacts not just how we act, but how we speak.

James reminds us that our tongue—though small—has incredible power. It can steer lives, ignite destruction, or breathe life and encouragement. This message unpacks three key truths:

The Power to Direct – Words shape our direction and destiny.

The Power to Destroy – Our speech can cause devastating damage.

The Power to Demonstrate – Our words reveal the true condition of our hearts.

We also explore practical steps for spiritual growth:

Letting God transform our hearts

Choosing to guard what influences us

Intentionally speaking words of life

This teaching will challenge and encourage you to take inventory of your words and consider what they reveal about your faith. Because when Jesus transforms your heart, it transforms your speech—and that can change the world.
