Continuing the month of spiritual maturity, this message works through James 1:19-27 to draw out three keys.

Third, they live out genuine faith: bridling the tongue, caring for orphans and widows, and keeping themselves unspotted from the world. As we grow, we walk in greater spiritual authority.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
