[666.70 --> 668.20] when you put yourself out there,
[668.26 --> 669.54] your ideas or your teaching
[669.54 --> 670.26] or whatever,
[670.48 --> 672.08] you are inviting judgment
[672.08 --> 673.16] from people.
[674.34 --> 675.46] So YouTube content,
[675.74 --> 676.34] TikToks,
[676.42 --> 676.74] Instagram,
[677.00 --> 677.28] Facebook,
[677.46 --> 678.04] whatever it is,
[678.10 --> 679.50] when you put yourself out there,
[679.82 --> 681.46] people will judge it.
[683.02 --> 684.30] And so many people
[684.30 --> 684.96] on the internet
[684.96 --> 685.64] have forgotten
[685.64 --> 687.30] how to separate ideas
[687.30 --> 688.02] from the people
[688.02 --> 688.62] who speak them.
[689.96 --> 690.90] And instead of debating
[690.90 --> 692.36] ideas and content,
[692.58 --> 693.76] we attack the messenger.
[694.94 --> 695.14] Right?
[695.18 --> 695.94] You get trolled
[695.94 --> 696.68] or you get bullied
[696.68 --> 697.64] or you get canceled.
[698.50 --> 699.24] And it's not just
[699.24 --> 699.86] the so-called
[699.86 --> 701.40] keyboard warriors anymore.
[701.66 --> 702.52] This is normal.
[702.90 --> 704.52] This is how we interact online.
[705.20 --> 706.28] And it hurts.
[707.92 --> 708.92] And it's hard.
[708.92 --> 711.82] So look,
[711.90 --> 712.96] we've put it in this
[712.96 --> 714.30] context before,
[715.20 --> 716.18] but Christians
[716.18 --> 717.80] have to be
[717.80 --> 718.72] different.
[720.00 --> 720.76] If you say
[720.76 --> 721.68] that you believe
[721.68 --> 723.08] in this Jesus guy
[723.08 --> 724.10] and you really want
[724.10 --> 724.88] to live your life
[724.88 --> 725.48] for the glory
[725.48 --> 726.68] of his name,
[726.80 --> 728.16] you've got to be different.
[728.94 --> 729.94] And so stop it.
[730.78 --> 730.88] Right?
[731.00 --> 731.84] Be different.
[732.32 --> 733.44] Post different.
[733.78 --> 734.92] Engage differently.
[735.30 --> 736.46] Talk differently.
[736.46 --> 738.00] In fact,
[738.24 --> 740.02] if you see something online
[740.02 --> 741.36] that triggers you,
[742.08 --> 742.96] maybe try talking
[742.96 --> 743.56] to that person
[743.56 --> 744.46] face-to-face.
[745.28 --> 745.40] Right?
[745.44 --> 746.20] Take it offline.
[746.72 --> 747.50] Maybe what we need
[747.50 --> 748.06] to reclaim
[748.06 --> 749.50] is face-to-face
[749.50 --> 750.82] and dinner table debates.
[751.58 --> 751.72] Right?
[751.78 --> 752.50] Enough of this
[752.50 --> 754.16] avatar echo chamber.
[755.00 --> 755.12] Right?
[755.16 --> 756.00] Just stop it.
[756.46 --> 757.20] Be different.
[759.12 --> 759.84] And I think
[759.84 --> 760.62] what James is saying
[760.62 --> 761.18] is that's got to
[761.18 --> 761.82] start up here.
[762.54 --> 763.24] It's got to start
[763.24 --> 765.42] with our words,
[765.42 --> 766.70] with our speech.
[767.64 --> 768.20] And I think James
[768.20 --> 769.32] makes this clear
[769.32 --> 769.98] when he says
[769.98 --> 771.42] in verse 2.
[772.54 --> 772.88] He says,
[773.02 --> 773.70] we all stumble
[773.70 --> 775.02] in many ways.
[776.20 --> 776.90] Anyone who is
[776.90 --> 777.76] never at fault
[777.76 --> 779.14] in what they say
[779.14 --> 780.04] is perfect,
[780.34 --> 781.08] able to keep
[781.08 --> 781.94] their whole body
[781.94 --> 782.48] in check.
[783.04 --> 783.50] And so first,
[783.58 --> 784.34] what I want us
[784.34 --> 785.28] to see in that verse
[785.28 --> 786.68] is that James
[786.68 --> 787.72] is a realist.
[788.80 --> 788.98] Right?
[789.00 --> 789.70] What does he start there?
[789.74 --> 789.94] He says,
[790.00 --> 790.80] we all stumble
