James 3 - Teachers, Speech, and Spiritual Maturity

James chapter 3 is focused on speech and its relationship to spiritual maturity. James just finished with a reminder that our life goal must be to declare our faith publicly by doing the works that faith produces. Works are anything that displays our faith, whether an action or a word or even a thought.  James first mentions teachers and will then broaden the scope.  This is a popular text that many are familiar with.  That those who teach will be judged with greater strictness or a higher standard.  Why and how so?  The context is speech and spiritual maturity and deals with how one handles or mishandles the Word of God.
