September 28 | James 5:13-20 | A Woven Mercy “If anyone among you wanders from the truth and is bought back by another,” . . . they will be saved together. In other words, . . . our lives are intricately connected and woven together, so much that when we are suffering, we can call on our neighbor for help, and when we are thriving, we can worship together. These shared moments are God’s woven mercies for us.

September 21 | James 3:13-4:3 | A Gentle Mercy The true sages of our day live out of a wisdom that is from “above." Wisdom from “below” is bitter, envious, boastful, and full of false truths. Wisdom from above is gentle, peaceable, and bears no trace of partiality. To live with wisdom, we must learn of mercy that is gentle.

September 14 | James 3:1-12 | A Merciless Tongue Our words are used to cut people down and drown people out. Our tongues are like tameless beasts used to both praise the Lord and curse our neighbor. This ought not to be so. For us to live with mercy, we must learn to control the parts of us that seek mercilessness.

September 7 | James 2:1-17 | A Working Mercy A faith without works is dead. Lifeless. Pointless. The faith we have in God and in one another must birth in us action and care and a willingness to give of what we must serve one another.

August 31 | James 1:17-27 | An Undefiled Mercy Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, according to James, is this: “to care for the orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.” It is time we take these words to heart. Our religion is only as pure as our ability to care for those who are need of care.
