Christian Actitudes Pt 1

Musing The Mysteries

First of all, “ACTitudes” is not a typo, it’s a Wigetism; a word I made up, a composite of both “attitude” and action,” both of which are heavily involved in the lifestyle of the disciple of Jesus. These are right attitudes that lead to right actions. I gave this message to our church in Santa Cruz, CA sometime in the early 2000’s. It’s the first of a series of teachings from various passages on poignant lists of Christian character qualities. This one is based on the qualities that James recorded in his third chapter: “The wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.”
