    Double-Minded Destruction

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 27, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,302 views

    Have you ever been indecisive? Believe it or not, indecision is a huge problem according to the Bible. It's time to get off the fence.

    What does it mean to be double-minded? Simply put, it means that you are torn between two decisions. Your mind wants to go in two different directions, which often leads to bad decisions. The Greek word for “double minded” in James 1:8 is defined as “wavering, uncertain, doubting.” The picture ...read more

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Oct 26, 2022
     | 4,014 views

    We've probably all been through hard times at least once. It's difficult even to think of joy in those trying moments, yet James wrote that believers should consider trials joyous.

    Hard times. We've probably all been through hard times at least once. It may be a financial loss that caused the hard times. It may be a job loss that caused the financial loss. It may be a relational loss - breaking up with someone we thought would be a lifelong friend. When these hard ...read more

    Following Jesus, Even Through Trials And Tests Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Oct 28, 2022
     | 2,408 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

    We all have faced and will face many tests. How we manage those tests depends on us. Some tests we study for, as in academic.

    Before the situation with Sennacherib had been settle, Hezekiah had become very ill. In his weaken condition, Hezekiah received this unsettling message from God’s prophet, Isaiah. "Thus saith the LORD, Set thine house in order: for thou shalt die, and not live." How does he respond.

    Turing Trials Into Triumphs Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Jun 7, 2021
     | 6,190 views

    The first subject that James addresses in his letter is how to face our trials. His suggestion is shocking: we should welcome our trials with joy. But his reason for the suggestion makes sense when you understand things from God's perspective.

    A. In Max Lucado’s book, In The Eye Of The Storm, he tells a story about a parakeet named Chippie. 1. Chippie the parakeet never saw it coming -one second he was peacefully perched in his cage, and the next he was sucked in, washed up and blown over. 2. The problem began when Chippie’s owner ...read more

    trials and difficulties can be opportunities for growth in our faith. As we endure them, we become more like Christ and grow closer to God. So, let us consider it all joy and trust in God's strength as we face the trials in our lives. May the Lord bless you and keep you

    I want to look at James 1 verses 2-4 which says: "Consider it all joy, my brothers, when you encounter various trials, for you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in ...read more

    Does the word of God promise to supply all your needs? Did Jesus say He would never leave you? Did He say He would keep you from falling and present you faultless before the Father's throne?

    Provision Granted. James 1:2-7 When James wrote his epistle some 30 years later after Jesus’ death. James humility is evident by the way he saw himself: "James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ" (James 1:1). James identified himself as the servant of Jesus rather than as a ...read more

    Message 1 in a series through James that helps us explore the relationship between faith and works in our lives. James was the half-brother of Jesus and the leader of the church in Jerusalem.

    Today, we’re starting a new series through the New Testament book of James called Faith & Works. I truly believe that you won’t find a more practical book in the entire Bible than James. Some of you may remember the For Dummies series of books that became popular 20-30 years ago and are still ...read more

    God’s judgement is inescapable. How do you think you will fair on that day? What are the deeds in your life that you will need to give account of? Will they commend you or will they condemn you?

    Chippie the parakeet never saw it coming. One second he was peacefully perched in his cage. The next he was sucked in, washed up, and blown over.
