Join Pastor Stephen Mizell, Pastor Jay Rivenbark, and Pastor Wendy Korbusieski from Open Door Church as they explore authentic faith and the transformative power of our words through James 2:18-3:18 .

Scripture Focus: James 2:18-3:18 - James contrasts intellectual belief with lived-out faith, then addresses the tongue as the most difficult thing to tame, comparing it to a spark that can set an entire forest ablaze.

In This Episode:

• How actions authenticate our beliefs and demonstrate genuine faith
• Taming the tongue: why it's our hardest discipline
• The danger of our internal dialogue and self-talk
• Godly wisdom versus worldly cleverness
• Practical faith transformation in everyday moments

Key Quote: "Nobody speaks more to you than you. The words you play on repeat in your head matter. You can either build yourself up and speak the truth that God speaks about you, or you can believe the lies that Satan whispers."
