We Need God’s Wisdom

James 1:5-8 | Eric Hovis | 8/16/26

Today we continue our new sermon series in the book of James, Everyday Gospel. In James 1:5-8, James encourages his readers to ask God for wisdom, and to ask in faith without double-mindedness.

Pastor Eric highlights these points from the text:

1) Ask God for wisdom.

2) Receive God’s wisdom.

2a. We receive God’s wisdom from the Word.

2b. We receive God’s wisdom through the fear of the Lord.

2c. We receive God’s wisdom through wise counsel.

2d. We receive God’s wisdom through life experiences.

3) Faith for God’s wisdom.
