Fire and Fuel 

January 31, 2025 by Ken Yates in Blog - gossip, James 3:5-6, Prov 26:20-21, strife, tongue
In recent news, we have seen the devastating fires in southern California. I know nothing about forestry, but I understand that two things were needed for this destruction to occur. One was a fire source. From what I’ve heard, various people purposely set the fires, which, though very small, were how the huge, devastating fires

The Tongue Will Get You in Trouble 

November 14, 2023 by Ken Yates in Blog - Jas 3:6, tongue, words
In a famous passage, James tells us to beware of the damage our tongues can do. He puts it like this: “The tongue is a fire…The tongue is so set among our members that it defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature” (Jas 3:6). Without question, he’s talking about the

Because he was a Beatle, the press gossiped about him constantly, and it hurt. It inspired Harrison to write the song “Devil’s Radio.” Isn’t it interesting that even a non-Christian can understand and be

Five Practical Examples of Godly Speech (James 5:9-16)

July 26, 2018 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - carnal, Christian speech, tongue, virtue
“Some things are better left unsaid”—is what I generally realize right after saying them. The Epistle of James has much to say about the tongue. One of the signs of spiritual immaturity or carnality is that every time you open your mouth the “old man” comes out. What you say will often reveal the state
