James; Faith / Works Pt 1
Today we start a new series, "James; Faith/Works".
James 1:2-3 Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds … because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

The book of James gives us very practical and pointed instructions about living the Christian life. Written to a people who were scattered and suffering, James encourages communities of faith to obey God and to put feet to their faith. Rather than letting us be deceived by a mere profession of faith, James tells us what authentic, saving faith should look like—it works. The faith James describes makes a radical difference in the needs of the world around us. We hope that you enjoy this series!
