    The Reflective Christian

    Life can be narrowed down to two outcomes, either you will live life as a reflection of God or a shadow of this world, when people see you what do they see?

    It is strange how life works out sometimes. Sometimes people, who show the greatest potential, fizzle out and nothing ever really comes of them. And other times people who never really seem to have it all together, end up beating the odds, and actually make something of themselves. For instance, ...read more

    Pure Religion

    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

    Reflections

    We use a lot of mirrors to examine and determine the kind of person we are, but the only true mirror is God’s Word. Every other mirror will leave us with a warped view of ourselves. We must be transformed into the image of Christ.

    Reflections By Pastor Jim May (This sermon was presented using projected pictures of people standing in front of different carnival mirrors that distorted their true appearance) How we see ourselves will always determine how far we go in life, and how far we go with God. If we are going to be ...read more

    Off The Bench...into The Game

    This is on James’ emphasis on works as the necessary other side of faith. Yes, only faith is required for salvation, but works completes faith.

    Off the Bench…Into the Game James 1:19-27 February 11, 2007 Not too long ago, Toni and I were wandering around downtown Chicago and we happened to find a small art gallery with some truly wonderful works for sale. Being who I am, the first thing I looked at was the prices, which were way out of ...read more

    If we are going to "walk the walk" and live for Jesus, we must dig into the Word of God.

    Walking the Walk Introduction An old DC Talk song starts out by suggesting that the number one cause of atheism in our country today is Christians, who confess Jesus with their lips but deny him by their lifestyles. I would suggest to you that there is some truth to that statement. Let’s face it; ...read more

    Believing is fine, intending to is fine, but it’s actually what you do that makes the difference. Application makes all the difference.

    We don't need to fill another notebook, with more outlines, of powerful truths, and wonderful insights, we do not suffer from a lack of correct heads, but what we need is to have more of a consumed heart, and more of walking out what we already know.

    Do the Do Today we are back in our series on James, and today probably more than any other message you will see why I chose for our series title, "James seeing things from the right perspective." Today we are going to talk about a subject that Jesus spoke on frequently, and in our text today James ...read more
