We’re working through the book of James and today we look at James 3. The topic is taming the tongue - not only how we talk to others, but also how we talk to ourselves. We’re glad you’re joining us for this conversation!

EPISODE RECAP

• Get started by writing down James 3:2-5 (0:43)

• What are the things that you say that you need to be careful about? (6:49)
• The tongue is very powerful, even the things we stay in our own mind (11:07)
• James is telling teachers that their role comes with a high responsibility (15:04)
