    Three basics for living the Christian life from the Book of James - Be Teachable, Live a moral life, and embrace the Word of God.

    I’ve got to be honest with you -- I hate following instructions. If at all possible, I’d rather try to figure things out for myself than look at an instruction manual. I think it’s a guy thing. But it’s true. And it doesn’t really matter what it is. It can be setting the clock on the VCR, figuring ...read more

    In this sermon you will find help in evaluating your reception of the word of God.

    Remember the fairly tale where the wicked witch consulted the mirror but disregarded the mirror’s advice. We sometimes do the same thing. We hear the word of God but disregard the teachings we hear. James used a mirror to challenge our thinking concerning our receptivity of the word of God. He ...read more

    Last of 5 in the series "A Light Unto My Path: Growing Through God’s Word." This sermon brings the series to a close with the exhortation to live by the truth of the Bible.

    Text: James 1 19-26 I remember as a little boy watching Saturday morning cartoons and a consistent theme was the Genie in the bottle or the mind controlled slave who responded to the master’s every wish with the monotone reply "I hear and obey master."

    A Spiritual Malfunction

    Contributed by James Westmoreland on Oct 23, 2006
     | 6,061 views

    When we hear what God wants us to be and what he wants us to do in our worship and we do something else, this says that there is a critical "disconnect," a spiritual malfunction.

    A man was hired to paint the lines on the highway that divide the lanes. Now the company didn’t have a lot of resources so he had to do his painting on foot. After the first day at work his supervisor was very impressed when he learned that this new employee had painted three miles’ worth of ...read more

    Looking At The Plans Series

    Contributed by Stewart Holloway on Nov 14, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,576 views

    However, in order for God to be free to work, you need to be dreaming the right dream. You need to be envisioning the right plan. Not just any plan will do for God. You need a divine plan to build your home. That plan is God’s written word.

    I love to look at building plans – especially of houses and churches. Whether it’s a floor plan or a full blueprint, I love it. My love for plans began when I was in fifth or sixth grade and my parents were planning to build their house. Mom and dad involved me in the plan selection process, and ...read more

    James describes "pure religion" in very practical terms that are easy to understand.

    Pure Religion James 1:19-27 What is religion? Isn’t it amazing how we can use a word every day of our life and have no idea what it means? “Religion” is one of those words. It’s like the ad in the newspaper “Dog for sale.” When we read that ad, what kind of dog comes to our mind? Chances are ...read more
