Pressure Points is a study from the Book of James.
Some days life feels like a giant pressure cooker. We can feel pressure from a myriad of directions: pressure from society, pressure from Satan, pressure from friends, pressure from our sin nature, and even pressure from our own emotions.
The easy course is to just open whatever valve will release the pressure, but too often that valve spews the pent-up steam of harsh words and inappropriate actions on whoever is near us.
The Book of James offers understanding of those pressure points and the proper valves to use to keep those pressures from ruining our lives and the lives of those around us.
Joyful trust in God will get you through any trial. God won’t tempt me, but He will provide a way to resist temptation.
God does not play favorites and neither should I. Fuel your words with wisdom and gentleness.Overcome the pressure of conflict by humbly submitting to Christ.When someone wrongs you, respond with patient endurance.
