Wednesday Night: Study of James

Nov 11, 2026  •  Craig Smee

Everybody has an opinion. Not everybody has wisdom.

In James 3:13–18, James shows us two kinds of wisdom. One comes from below. It grows out of jealousy and selfish ambition, and it leaves division behind it. The other comes from above. It is pure, peaceable, gentle and full of mercy, and it looks like Jesus.

Wisdom isn’t proven by how it sounds. It’s proven by what it produces.

Check the fruit. Check the root. Ask God for wisdom, and sow peace.
