    There are decisions that all of us make on a daily basis. Some of those are minor and relatively inconsequential, others are major and potentially life altering. Some impact only us (or so we think), where others reap ramifications on our families, church, workplaces, school, community, and more. ...read more

    The Double Minded Christian

    Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on Jul 12, 2022
     | 6,692 views

    A double minded Christian is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. Their loyalty is divided between God and the world. They live more by sight and less by faith. They are neither hot or cold, just lukewarm.

    TEXT: James 1:5-8 (NLT) "If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and he will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking. But when you ask him, be sure that your faith is in God alone. Do not waver, for a person with divided loyalty is as unsettled as a wave of the sea that is blown ...read more

    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.

The Greek word for “double minded” in James 1:8 is defined as “wavering, uncertain, doubting.” The picture ...read more

    Following Jesus, Even Through Trials And Tests Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Oct 28, 2022
     | 2,595 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
