     | 17,385 views

    Earlier in the first chapter of James much has been said about testing and trials but now James turns his attention to temptation. How are they alike and how are they different, especially since the Greek word is the same for both? Let's take a look!

    James 1:1-15 “James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes scattered among the nations: “Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. ...read more

    In James 1:9-12, James helps us understand that in order for us to persevere in our trials with joy, we must adopt God’s eternal perspective on poverty and wealth.

    Allow me to start with two stories to get us thinking about perspectives on having too much or too little money. 1. I read about an exclusive school in Hollywood that was attended by children of movie stars, producers, and directors. a. One day, the children were asked to write a composition on ...read more

     | 10,554 views

    With the sudden onslaught of the Worldwide pandemic, it seems appropriate to revisit the trials of Job.

    Throughout the centuries, the story of Job has been used to help people in times of sorrow and sickness. Many have interpreted that God was responsible for “allowing" satan to afflict Job, and therefore He “allows” sorrows, suffering, poverty, and sickness to come upon His children. However, ...read more

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Oct 28, 2022
     | 2,048 views

    James, the half-brother of the Lord Jesus, knew about trials and tests. His words to believers of his day are just as true for us of these days, too. In a sentence, he'd say "Endure the test and receive a reward".

    Full disclosure: this is edited from a message preached at First Baptist Church, Chamois, MO in August 2022 Introduction: Many of us think following Jesus is going to be a walk in the park, so to speak, but that isn’t always true. Certainly, as He promised, He’s there with us, but trials and tests ...read more

    Are you at the end of your rope? Suffering from trials and troubles? Perhaps it is the Lord’s discipline- given out of love for your good. Find hope and help in the first part of Hebrews 12.

    The Apostle Peter to me is one of the great men of the Bible - not because he was so perfect and strong and patient and so much like the Lord - but because he was so imperfect and impetuous and impatient and so much like us! One of my favorite stories about Peter is found in Matthew chapter 14. ...read more
