“Desire a Life of Integrity”
(James 1:19-26)
James teaches us how to live by faith in Jesus through the trials and temptations of life. He challenges us to desire a life of integrity. Our new life in Christ is best seen when we: listen well, manage strong emotions, obey the Word, and serve others in need.
- Respectful listening (1:19a)-
- Builds relationships.
- Seeks to understand.
- Creates space and pace.
- Dealing well with strong emotions (1:19b-21a)-
- Choosing to have a sloooow fuse...
- Choosing to discard (“rid”) unhelpful behaviors/attitudes.
- Putting the Word into practice (1:21b-25)-
- Humbly accept the Word (listen w/ a bias to obey)...
- The Word rescues/saves us.
- The Word frees us.
- The Word guides us.
- Serving others in need (1:26-27)-
- Closely guard your words (they reflect your heart).
- Changed lives help others.
- We serve the most vulnerable.
- This way of life best reflects Jesus’ Way.
