In this message we are reminded that being doers of the Word means living out our faith in obedience, not just hearing Scripture. James 1 calls us to be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger, and to let God’s Word transform our actions. True faith shows itself through bridling the tongue, serving those in need, and living distinctly from the world.
