This Week #3-14

Welcome back everyone!!!! I hope your vacation went well, that you had a wonderful Christmas and that this year has started of great for you. It was so good to see the students again this weekend, hang out with them and have fun! This week in OFF ROAD we are kicking off the New Year with a 4 week study of the book of James titled, “Cheap Talk.” In this week’s lesson we looked at James 1:19-27. James’ word here a very direct and to the point. He states that we need to be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to anger. Our transformation to becoming this needs to come from within and is guided by the word of God reflecting the truth in our hearts. In the end religious, “right answers,” are worthless if they aren’t followed by action out of love for God. Pretty straight forward if you ask me. So the question we ended with was. Does your WHOLE life reflect your relationship with God?

Questions to discuss:
What areas of your life best reflect your relationship with God?
What areas of your life least reflect your relationship with God? How can you shift this to align with your relationship with God?
If someone looked at your life (minus when you go to church) would they say they you love god? Why or why not?
