November 10, 2019 • Royce Robinson • James 5:19–20
The Perfect Church body is made up of imperfect people. Though we may wander off from God's truth we should be open to correction and times when our brothers and sisters in Christ are working to pull us back to where God would like us to be.
Perfect and Powerful Prayer
November 3, 2019 • Pastor Blake Wilson • James 5:13–18
With the 15th message in our series on the book of James, Pastor Blake teaches on the latter half of James chapter 5. Many of us would say that we are not envious or jealous, however, the lack of prayers in our lives may reveal that we do not believe God will do it for us so we resign ourselves not to ask. However, God perfects us by afflicting us and allow us to suffer and during those times in which we suffer prayers are to be offered up.
Perfect Patience
October 27, 2019 • Pastor Blake Wilson • James 5:7–12
With the 14 message in our series on the book of James, Pastor Blake teaches on the first half of James chapter 5. It is important to recognize that while we wait on God we do not give up hope and knowledge of knowing God will and can come through. We take a look back on Exodus 16 and see that the children of Israel forgot how God moved in the past and showed their impatience. We can also become impatient but is important to not complain while God is moving on His timing and not our own timing.

Perfect Faith, Perfect Works
September 15, 2019 • Pastor Blake Wilson • James 2:14–26

Perfect Religion
August 25, 2019 • Pastor Blake Wilson • James 1:26–27
With the fifth message in our series Be Perfect, Pastor Blake teaches from James 1:26-27. God’s word lays out exactly what “perfect religion” looks like and we must understand perfect religion is defined by our contaminated perception of ourselves and our corrupt communication to and about others. God’s definition of religion versus our own definition.
Perfect Actions
