REFLECT

    1. How have you been convicted or encouraged over the sermons on speech and wisdom in James 3?


    ENCOUNTER & TRANSFORM

  • Godly speech is tied to biblical wisdom. Growing in wise speech is tied to growing in Christlikeness. As King Solomon said, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding” (Proverbs 9:10).

    1. Taking one at a time, read and discuss the following proverbs on speech. How have you experienced the truth of the proverb? What type of speech does the proverb esteem? What type of speech does it condemn? How can you take steps forward in pursuing wise speech?
