Jim, Why Should I Listen To You? S7e1 James1:2

Welcome to a new "season" of BeWithMe, that is a new book of the Bible. It is the book of James.  He is the actual brother or technically ½ brother of Jesus.  To his credit, James did not let it go to waste.

James is highly regarded, and in these few pages, we will see WHY.  He turns out to be wise. He speaks with his heart in the right place with God, but his boots are on the ground.  He leads an important local church.  That is, a bunch of knuckleheads.  Just like all churches.

Here is his open:  "Hello trouble! Nice to see you!" He knows that really really good things can come out of really really bad circumstances. We will need some help with this situation.  We will need wisdom.  Fortunately, we have a God who wants to hear from us; He has something to give; He has something He wants us to ask for:  W-I-S-D-O-M. 

So the real world requires this critical skill: wisdom.  And in the book of James, we have a truly wise man to help us.  Please join us for 7 minutes a day in listening.  Today is an excellent day to start.  Tomorrow will be the 2nd best day to start.  We are on every podcast provider you can think of.  Or write and I'll send you something daily.
