Faith That Works in the Face of Pride
(James 4:1-12)

Relational wars outside are rooted in the war within, but God gives greater grace for clean hands and pure hearts.

  1. The Root of War: Battle Within (1–5)

  2. The Remedy of War: Greater Grace (6)

  3. The End of War: Drawing Near to God (7–12)

 
 

Reflection Questions

  • What demand or defense am I refusing to surrender?

    >> Where have I turned a desire into a weapon against another?

  • How does knowing that the Judge of all the earth absorbed my sentence on the cross free me from having to defend my pride or prove I am right?

  • Whom do I need to step down from judging this week? >> What does it look like practically to lay down the gavel and extend grace to them?
