    Turn with me to James 4. Read James 4:13-5:11. A lot is covered in this passage, but it points to some very important conclusions. We cannot be comfortable, complacent or cowardly.

    Ring, ring! “Hello. Who is this?” The call. How often do we answer calls? They come on the telephone. They may be a letter or e-mail. Calls come in different shapes and sizes.
