Investing energy with God in petition and prayer supports an imperative relationship and prepares us to address life's ...read more

    As James challenges his readers to have a true religion, he comes to a part of our faith-life that is nearly impossible to control - our tongues.

There is a sense in which this sermon is set up fairly similarly to others - a couple of main points with smaller points, but there is also a sense in ...read more

So, we gotta find time to chill too. It's not just about catching some Z's, but also about taking a day to do something cool or just relax. ...read more
