Faith And Love James' Style

Contributed by Greg Nance on Mar 7, 2015

James has a lot to tell us about faith. His simple, straight forward message challenges us and instructs us in character building God's way. This is a summary of some of the things James tells us as we prepare to enter chapter three.

The theme of James is captured in the first chapter, verses James 1:2-4 (read). He then discusses trials and faith throughout the rest of the letter. Some of these trials come from without, but some are as near as the members of our own bodies, i.e. our tongues. Someone pointed out that James ...read more

James 5 Pray Smart Series

Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Oct 21, 2018

I first titled this message “Pray right” but I changed my topic because it’s about “praying smart” – we need to be using the wisdom of God to pray the smart way which then touches the heart of God and eventually our hearts!

Video: Prayer 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!

Is it too much? Is it too hard? Sometimes when we read the Bible, we wonder, can it really be done? It seems like so much, it seems like such a high standard. I’ve wondered that at times.
