Transcribe →Leaving God out of your plans is arrogance (James 4:13-17)
Jul 7, 202000:06:14Tap to summarizeThis week we are digging into James 4:13-17. James is forcing us to ask, "Are you building your little kingdom or are you building God's?"

It is a question for the heart. Have you submitted your plans to God? Is he the Lord of your future?
