About this sermon
"The tongue is a fire" - The book of James offers a spiritual check-up that continues in chapter 3 with an assessment of the tongue. Rather than treating it as a small, insignificant muscle, James shows how far it punches above its weight. He gives a sobering warning to those who presume they are ready to teach—but his challenge is for all of us. Do our words reflect God’s transforming work within us, or do they expose our double-mindedness?
