Sixteenth Sunday after Pentecost - Messages for the Community of God: Speaking Creatively . . .

On this Sixteenth Sunday after Pentecost we continue our series on James' letter to a church struggling to live practically while their faith is being challenged.  These Messages for the Community of God guide us in living practically as well. 

Connect to Speaking Creatively . . .  James talks about how deadly our tongues, our speech can be - something we just are not able to tame.  With it we praise God and curse one another.  Though James does not offer any direct solutions, he leaves us wondering about our speech.  It is by the Spirit that even our speaking is transformed into life creating speech so that living waters flow out from us.
