Speak Life! James 3:1-12 T. Anderson Active Disciples Speak the Character and Kingdom of God Our Words Have Consequences (v.1-2) Our Words Are Powerful (v.3-8) Our Words Are Our Responsibility (v.9-12) Points to ponder: In what situations do you find that your ungracious speech betrays your faithfulness to Jesus? What lies behind those words (e.g. tiredness, anger, frustration, insecurity, fear, hurt, disrespect, etc.)? How will knowing this help you to respond better in the future? Although you may never know how impactful your words might be, who might you speak words of blessing to today?
