In this episode of 12-Minute Convos with Jesus Believers, Engel Jones connects with James Early from Connecticut. James shares his powerful story of overcoming deep-seated anger toward his younger brother after realizing that if we say we love God but don't love our brother, we are lying. This stark biblical realization led him to make a conscious, transformational choice to actively practice his faith and lean on God to help him love others.
Listen in as James discusses his journey of leading a federal prison Bible study in Danbury, Connecticut, starting in 2008, and how those experiences inspired him to launch his own podcast, The Bible Speaks to You, right before the 2020 pandemic. He also shares a profound, alternative approach to preparing for marriage making a list of the qualities you want in a spouse and choosing to live them out in your own life first! If you are struggling with unforgiveness or simply want to strengthen your relationships, James’s beautiful reminder that you already have the "mind of Christ" will empower you to follow Jesus fearlessly
