I Came That They May Have Life
November 30, 2025

James
Bring Back the Wanderer
November 23, 2025
We are all capable of drifting from God and community, so we must watch out for one another. We are all responsible to bring back the wanderer. When we do this, we join the work of the good Shepherd who leaves the 99 to go after the one.
James
Faith and Prayer
November 16, 2025
As James closes his letter, the number one thing on his mind is prayer. Which makes sense, because prayer might be the main application of everything he’s been writing. True faith expresses itself through prayer.
James
Establish Your Heart in the End of the Story
November 10, 2025

James
Money Talks
November 2, 2025

James
Humility in Our Plans
October 26, 2025

James
Who Are You to Judge?
October 19, 2025
When we say something that negatively shades how people see someone, that is in the realm of slander. The problem is more common and more egregious than we think, but the gospel can change us. Mercy triumphs over judgement.
James
What Causes Fights?
October 12, 2025
We tend to focus on the surface reality of conflicts. But the answer to why we fight (and the solution to our fights) can’t be found on the surface. We have to look deeper.
James
Wisdom From Above
October 5, 2025
Would you call yourself wise? According to James, wisdom is less about what you know, and more about your life and what you love. True wisdom is a gift from God: Producing peace and good fruit.
James
The Problem & Power of Our Words
September 28, 2025
Our words reveal who we are, and they have the power to change the whole course of life. The problem is, no one can tame the tongue. So we look to Jesus for forgiveness and power to walk in his ways.

Saving Faith Works

James
The Sin of Partiality
September 14, 2025
To favor people because of appearances is so common that it feels normal. But James tells us that partiality is incompatible with faith in Jesus. God gives us the capacity to see people as he sees them, and to love them as he loves them.

Hearing and Doing
September 7, 2025
Just as we were given new life by the word of God (James 1:18), so we grow in that new life by living according to the word of God. And that involves two things: Hearing the word and doing the word. James holds those two things together, not to be separated.

The Foolish Wisdom of the Gospel
September 4, 2022
One of the main problems in the Corinthian church is that they were living according to worldly wisdom. They were seeing the world just like the world sees the world. So, Paul reminds them of the wisdom of God found in the gospel. The foolish wisdom of the gospel turns our view of the world upside down.
