This week Pastor addressed the challenge of faithful speech in times of tragedy and division, using James 3 to explore how our tongues can either echo God's blessing or contradict Christ's teaching. Drawing from the murders at Charlie Kirk's event and ongoing national tragedies, the sermon emphasized that the same instrument God used to declare love over Jesus and that Jesus used to teach the greatest commandments can either poison or proclaim hope. Five practical disciplines were offered: pray throughout the day, read scripture, check yourself before speaking, speak truth in love, and extend grace. The message concluded that our hope lies not in perfect speech but in redeemed people using their words to participate in God's healing work, with ministries like the Christian Resource Center modeling how collective voices can build up rather than tear down.
