Friends, the verse of the week is

James 1:19 “My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry.”

The meaning of this verse within the context of James chapter 1 may surprise you! Yes, this verse is a great encouragement in conflict, and relationship with others; however, this verse is meant to encourage you to approach the word of God with humility and eagerness to understand!

In this episode Raizel and Xenia discuss living in submission to the God’s word and recognize how difficult it can be to obey the truth in scripture. As broken people, we often have trouble believing that all of God’s commands are for our good. Thankfully, God knows us and understands our troubles. He provides help for us in our times of weakness and stubbornness and has the power to mold us into people who yield to his word with joy!
