Understanding Our Heart Struggle (James 4:1-3)

Not a day goes by we don't experience some kind of conflict. What causes all these fights and quarrels? James 4 gives the answer. In this lesson, we learn...

• The heart is more than just the place for feelings and emotions
• Key passages that teach behavior stems from the heart
• How our "passions" war within our members to create conflict
• Some practical examples of how wants can morph into needs and expectations
• What do we do if someone else doesn't meet our needs?
• Should we sympathize with those who experience disappointment?
• The ongoing battle between the flesh and the spirit

Thanks for listening. This is week three in our 11-week study on biblical counseling called, "Instruments in the Redeemer's Hands." Next week, we will focus in how Jesus is our wonderful counselor.
