Bitter or Better

Week 2

March 19, 2023 • Neil Perry

Neil walks us through James’ teaching on the importance of rejoicing in our tribulations. James expounds that tribulation produces a fruit of perseverance in our lives. This perseverance builds our character and gives us a hope that cannot disappoint. The hope we have creates an anticipation and God delights in us desiring Him in our waiting.

Where Does Your Wisdom Come From?

March 26, 2023 • JR Blanton • James 3

JR takes us to the third chapter of James to shed light on the importance of wisdom that comes from the Lord. The wisdom that the Lord offers is covered in His desire for peace, gentleness, and willingness to involve us in His will. In the ways that the Lord in his wisdom does good to us, we should also do unto others because this is how we reflect Him to the world.

There are Two Roads

April 2, 2023 • Jeremy Jenkins • James 4

In this teaching, Jeremy invokes the passion of James to shed light on the self-serving nature of many believers today. James proclaims that no one has a friendship with the world and lacks strife between them and God. If we are going to follow after God we have to be all in and count our sinful nature as a revolving opportunity towards glorifying the Lord. We in every moment need to wage the effect that our actions have in God’s will.
