Faith That Acts | James 1:19–2:17 | November 18, 2025
Description
Welcome to One Single Story with Pastor Stephen Mizell, Pastor Jay Rivenbark, and Pastor Wendy Korbusieski. Today we explore James 1:19-2:17 , examining what it means to live out genuine faith through intentional listening and showing mercy to all people.
In This Episode:
- The discipline of listening: seeking to understand rather than to be understood
- Why quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger requires cultivated restraint
- Understanding favoritism as an insult to God's grace and mercy
- How genuine faith assigns worth and value to every person regardless of status
Key Quote: "Anyone with working ears can hear. But to listen takes intention. A lot of times we are guilty of seeking in a conversation to be understood instead of seeking to understand."
