4.24.20 Wisdom pt. 3

Watch the video of Jim Meyers as he shares about this passage.

Contrast the description of earthly wisdom with the description of wisdom from above (v17). Which of these qualities do you need to focus more on to make sure you are applying wisdom from above in your life rather than wisdom from below?

James wraps up this section by explaining how wisdom from above brings peace (v18). The Jewish understanding of peace (shalom) is a restoration of brokenness in relationships with God, self, other and creation. With that understanding, how can you apply wisdom from above to sow peace around you this week?
