The True Grit Podcast Episode 14 | Wisdom that Walks Softly: Reflections on James 3:13 | Bite-Sized BiblecastEpisode Summary:In this episode, I reflect on James 3:13 and what it reveals about true wisdom and how we live it out. Digging into the original Greek, I look at what it means to have a manner of life—conduct—that actually backs up belief, and how the Bible calls us to carry out good works with intentionality and meekness. I’m honest about my own struggles with gentleness and the temptation to chase “good projects” that aren’t God’s assignment for me right now. I share encouragement about staying faithful to what God has truly called each of us to do, letting wisdom be seen in gentle living—no matter what’s happening in the world around us.Key Points with Timestamps:Introduction and Verse of the Day (00:00):Rachel introduces James 3:13 and sets the stage for a practical, honest look at living out wisdom daily.What Does “Conduct” Really Mean? (00:45):Original Greek words are unpacked, with “anastrophe” meaning manner of life—how a life is actually lived out day by day.The Intentionality Behind “Works” (01:50):Wisdom is demonstrated not by random good deeds, but by intentional, thoughtful action and choices—"ergon" is explored in this context.The Challenge of Meekness (03:20):Rachel explains “praotice”: mildness of disposition and gentleness of spirit. Gentleness isn’t natural for many, but it is central to demonstrating godly wisdom.How Wisdom Is Really Shown (04:10):The episode moves toward practical application, challenging listeners to consider if their manner of life and choices reveal wisdom—especially in moments of disagreement or frustration.God’s Personal Word and Conviction (05:00):Rachel shares how God reminded her to focus on meekness instead of chasing distractions, even those that seem “good.”Measuring Up and Invitation Forward (06:00):Encouragement to reflect honestly, admit the struggle, and join Rachel in pursuing wisdom through meekness—inviting listeners to stay the course together.Mentioned Links:Blue Letter BibleResource for Bible study, including word studies and original language research.Rachel Grit WebsiteHome for podcast episodes, blog posts, and resources.Supporting Verses:James 3:13, ESV"Who is wise and understanding among you?
