Podcasts about quick to listen

In this episode, Pastor Phil takes us through James 1:19-21, showing us how faith impacts our response to anger. Learn practical ways to deal with anger in a way that aligns with God's will, and discover how real faith isn't just about what you believe but how you live.

James makes repeated reference to the power of speech. To the power of the tongue. It has the power to give life life or take life away. You hear echoes of Jesus teaching that out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks. You may not remember everything someone has said to you, but you certainly will remember how those words made you feel. Words have that power. James tells us that the most vital and yet the most difficult thing to master in our Christian discipleship is our words, to listen first before speaking, and then when we do speak, to speak thoughtfully. . It is not so much what goes in one ear and comes out the other that bothers us, it is what goes in one ear, gets garbled up here in the middle, and then comes out the mouth is what really matters.

Do you ever find yourself speaking before you think, only to be filled with remorse over what was said? Or do you find it hard to follow through on what you know is right? This morning, as we continue our series in the book of James, we'll discuss the importance of listening before speaking, controlling our anger and understanding when it is righteous, and clearing out the negative influences within us. By embracing God's Word and acting on it, we can experience true freedom and blessing instead of just going through the motions. Join us as we learn how to shift our perspective, change our habits to walk in the presence and power of Jesus, and discover the joy that comes from living a life of obedience and faith. We look forward to worshiping with you!

In this first Quick to Listen episode, we discuss how biblical counseling can take place in a variety of contexts but still remain rooted in the church. We are joined by Rebekah Hannah, President and CEO of Anchored Hope, Paul Tautges, Pastor of Cornerstone Church in Cleveland, OH, and Alasdair Groves, Executive Director of the Christian Counseling & Educational Foundation.   Quick to Listen episodes draw inspiration from James 1:19, in which we are encouraged to be quick to listen and slow to speak. Our hope is to demonstrate Christlike love and communication that honors God and blesses His people, even when we don't see all things identically.  FROM OUR SPONSORS: Learn more about the new Southern Seminary MDiv at sbts.edu/newmdiv.

There's no question that leadership has great impact on our society. So we ought to pray for every leader who is in authority over us. Because the decisions they make affect our everyday lives. Whether they are godly, ungodly, righteous, unrighteous, fair, unfair, strong, or week; we pray. We never look to them as our hope or savior, but we pray for them. Today, Pastor Ryan reminds us through scripture how God revealed himself to leaders, and to pray for them. Listening also plays an important role in prayer. Listening to what God has for us, how to live, where to go, what to do... God calls us to be slow to speak and quick to listen. How quick are you?

Welcome to this Come to Jesus Daily devotional where we are in our Summer Inspiration series. Today, we reflect on what it means for us to be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to become angry.

Pastor Amos continues our Quiety Charisma series with a sermon titled 'Be Quick to Listen'

Quick to listen, have you ever spoke to fast and regretted it later. Many have gotten angry said things they did not mean and it almost distroyed them.   

Message from morning service - Church on the Hill, San Jose, CA

Tension in your shoulders, snapping at the kids, a sense of being “over it”, hiding in your phone. We've been there, military wife. You're overwhelmed and your body feels it and your family can sense it. But, there is hope. God did not intend for you to be in a state of constant stress and anxiousness.On our latest episode of Hope on the Homefront we get to chat with fellow military wife, Rachel Yorgey, an HFH volunteer, as she talks with Co-founder April Griffin about triggers. What are they? Where do they come from? How do we handle them?As believers in Christ, the way we deal with our triggers should look radically different from those that have no hope in the Lord. That is a tall order, and one we cannot do it on our own accord. We must invite God in to reveal where we are struggling, why we are struggling and understand the refuge He is in times of stress.We know you'll be encouraged by this conversation about military life, our spouses, and our kids. Plus, you'll hear some practical ways we've learned to respond to these triggers in Biblical way rather than just reacting to them in a way we'll regret later.

Have you ever said something and then thought, “I can’t believe I said that”? I have….and I am sad to say, I have done it more often than I like. It's just normal to want to say anything we want and act anyway we want. When something doesn’t go our way or someone does something to irritate us, our natural reaction is to strike back, often without considering the consequences. An enduring statement that I heard when I was young was, “It is better to be thought a fool than open your mouth and remove all doubt.” Scripture has some really good explanations and examples about this and has some ways you can overcome this quick talk and temper. If you have this area of your life totally conquered, you may not need this……but, if you are like me….I am still working on it. Join us and see how this can help you.

New perspective

I felt my heartrate increase as I opened my mouth to refute the charges a dear friend was leveling against me. What I had posted online had nothing to do with her as she implied. But before I replied, I whispered a prayer. I then calmed down and heard what she was saying and the hurt behind her words. It was clear that this went further than the surface. My friend was hurting and my need to defend myself dissolved as I chose to help her address her pain. During this conversation, I learned what James meant in today’s Scripture when he urged us to “be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry” (1:19). Listening can help us hear what may be behind the words and to avoid anger that “does not produce the righteousness that God desires” (v. 20). It allows us to hear the heart of the speaker. I think stopping and praying helped me greatly with my friend. I became much more sensitive to her words versus my own offense. Perhaps if I hadn’t stopped to pray, I would have fired back my thoughts and shared how offended I was. And while I haven’t always gotten the instruction James outlines right, that day, I think I did. Stopping to whisper a prayer before allowing anger and offense to take a hold of me was the key to listening quickly and speaking slowly (Proverbs 19:11). I pray that God will give me the wisdom to do this more often.

Sunday, November 12th - Way of The Wise Pt. 1Pastor Wes Morris Proverbs 4:7 (NIV) The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom. Though it cost all you have, get understanding.√  We believe our way is the best way.√  We are resistant to change.√  We choose what feels good instead of what is good. I Kings 3:7-12 (NIV) Now, Lord my God, you have made your servant king in place of my father David. But I am only a little child and do not know how to carry out my duties. Your servant is here among the people you have chosen, a great people, too numerous to count or number. So give your servant a discerning heart to govern your people and to distinguish between right and wrong. For who is able to govern this great people of yours?”The Lord was pleased that Solomon had asked for this. So God said to him, “Since you have asked for this and not for long life or wealth for yourself, nor have asked for the death of your enemies but for discernment in administering justice, I will do what you have asked. I will give you a wise and discerning heart.A DISCERNING HEARTDiscernment is not knowing the difference between right and wrong. It is knowing the difference between right and almost right. - Charles SpurgeonI. BEGINS WITH HUMILITY.Proverbs 11:2 (NIV) When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom.Proverbs 18:12 (ESV) Before destruction a man's heart is haughty, but humility comes before honor.II.

When we talk too much and listen too little, we communicate to others that our ideas are much more important than theirs. In the Bible, the Book of James advises us to reverse this process by putting a mental stopwatch on our conversations and to start keeping track of how much we talk and how much we actually listen. Let's take a listen to today's reading in regard to waiting to see what the Holy Spirit gives us to say. Because when we provide our point of view in our responses, we could be offering dry bread crumbs. Therefore, before we speak let's wait and hear what the LORD has to say. Blessings, Presiding Elder Barbara Hayes LAB | Jesus Calling

NOTES: The RESOLUTION Goal:  I will work for RESOLUTION and not VICTORY. Healthy couples fight CLEAN. Unhealthy couples fight DIRTY. Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry. Human anger does not produce the righteousness God desires. James 1:19–20 (NLT) RULES FOR THE FIGHT: 1. BE QUICK TO LISTEN 2. BE SLOW TO SPEAK 3. BE SLOW TO BECOME ANGRY FOUR HORSEMEN OF AN UNFAIR FIGHT: (DR. JOHN GOTTMAN) 1. CRITICIZING 2. CONTEMPT 3. DEFENSIVENESS 4. STONEWALLING HOW TO RESPOND IN CONFLICT: 1. DON'T REACT IN EMOTION, RESPOND IN THE SPIRIT. 2. CONFRONT TO HEAL AND NOT TO WIN. 3. FORGIVE. APOLOGIZE. 4. RUN TOWARDS RECONNECTION BOTTOM LINE: Don't fight against each other. Fight against the enemy and fight for your marriage. THE CHALLENGE: Use the BLESSING TOOL.

In this episode, Pastor Hannah continues walking us through the book of James, with a reminder of the power that listening before speaking can have in our relationships and lives.

Why is listening—a lost art form today—so important for the Christian? Join us this Sunday at CrossWinds Church in Spencer as we consider the answer from the Bible.

In the middle of our trials, at some point we need to be quiet, close our mouths, and listen to God. For the anger of man does not achieve the righteousness that God requires. We are not to be childish and throw a tantrum and/or be a jaded cynic with a hardened heart.

In today's episode, Gene challenges us to take time to reflect and think through our responses when we get angry. Anger is like having a smoke detector - it indicates there is a problem. Anger exists to tell us something is wrong and needs our attention. The underlying emotion is hurt, frustration, or fear.

As believers we need to be intentional about what we say (or type) and make sure to listen on purpose.
