    My wife Lindsay, who co-pastors with me preached this sermon in my series and took on this challenging passage about faith and works.James’ readers gave lip service to the faith and then went home and did as they pleased. Applicable for today's church.

I would like to read it from Eugene Peterson’s paraphrase (The Message) this morning and then we will look at 3 sections individually from the NLT version. James 2:14-26The Message ...read more

    This morning we are going to examine how we should “Show and Tell” our faith. It is not about how much we know, but in how much we show.

    Talk Is Cheap

    Actions or works may not create faith but they can reveal the substance and form of a person’s faith. To me, works is our faith made visible. “For just as a body without the spirit is dead” … a corpse … “so faith without works is also dead” … a corpse (James 2:26).

    [Put up picture of me on screen.] Let me tell you a little bit about that man in the photo. He was 40 years old when that picture was taken. He was 20 months sober at the time. Well … “sober” is not the right word. He was a dry drunk” … which means that he hadn’t picked up a drink in 20 ...read more

     | 7,175 views

    On the day of Pentecost, something incredible happened that had never happened before – the Holy Spirit came to reveal the sacred secret of God held hidden for all of eternity past.

    “Surely you have heard about the administration of God's grace that was given to me for you, that is, the mystery made known to me by revelation, as I have already written briefly” (Eph 3:2,3 NIV). There are two Greek words used in Scripture for the word “secret.” They are “Kruptos” and ...read more

    The Unrequited Love Of God

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Apr 1, 2019
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,786 views

    The passionate love of God is the blazing fire at the heart of all creation. God thinks about you every moment of every day. His love will never vary or change. That God would love even the vilest of sinners is the greatest mystery of eternity.

    God has commanded that every human being love Him with EVERYTHING in them (Deut 6:5). The GREAT commandment supersedes all others. Sadly, in the lives of too many Christians, God’s love is unrequited. There are some Christians who are not comfortable with the way God truly feels about them, so ...read more

    A state trooper was parked on the side of the road, waiting to catch speeding drivers, when he saw a car puttering along at 22 mph. Knowing that a slow driver is just as dangerous as a speeder, the state trooper turned on his lights and pulled the car over. As he approached the vehicle, the ...read more

    James 2 - Let's Do It! Series

    Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Sep 16, 2018
     | 8,091 views

    The church needs to put faith in action by ruthlessly rooting out the disease of pride and prejudice, favoritism in its body. Why? Because it is infecting others and causing death not life. This chapter is clear separate faith and works and you get a dead corpse.

    Series: James – Let’s do it! Thesis of Book: The message of the book is “Let’s do it – live the faith – put it into action! The half-brother of Jesus is speaking to the scattered Jewish Christians across the nations – they were scattered right after Stephen was killed. James tells these Christians ...read more

    The Ultimate Experience: How Not To Miss It! Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Oct 22, 2018
     | 6,802 views

    Some people miss the ultimate experience, in fact, any experience of God whatsoever--even those who claim to be born-again Christians. Why? It comes down to one little word that is pivotal, according to Jesus, in our experience of God.

    Have you ever experienced God? Sometimes it's an unsettling question, isn't it? As born again Christians, we often bristle when people accuse us of being religious. At least I do. When they say something like that, I'm quick to explain to them that I don't think of myself so much as having a ...read more
