A Stagnant Heart

Where do quarreling and infighting come from? Why do so many people feed off of anger and discord? James tells us that this comes from our devotion to our passions. When we are selfish and angry, no good fruit is produced. The Church, of all places, should be different, yet we hear of discord in churches frequently. This week, Fr. Ben Williams compares the selfish and prideful heart to a stagnant pool of water. Unless we receive God’s grace that flows down like a clear mountain waterfall, we will continue to sow seeds of discord, not only throughout the world, but throughout the Church as well. Join us for the third of four sermons on the Book of St. James.
