Finishing our series in James, Don Pearson walks us through the difficult conversation of prayer and suffering. Instead of asking “how is your prayer life”, he invites us to consider the question “who is Jesus?”
Facade of Control
November 5, 2023 • Don Pearson • James 4:13–17
We all love control. But what if control is just an illusion. Using text from James 4, Don Pearson challenges us to consider areas of our life where we have edged God out to claim our own authority.
Suffering and Joy
October 29, 2023 • Don Pearson • James 5:1–12
Suffering is universal, but lacking joy doesn’t have to be. Don Pearson reminds us that joy comes when you enter God’s story with your story.
Hearts at War
October 22, 2023 • Don Pearson • James 4:1–12
We all want to be loved. We all want to be respected. How do we respond when those desires are not met? Using text from James 4, Don Pearson encourages us to take internal steps towards resolving conflicts before they start.
Taming the Tongue
October 15, 2023 • Don Pearson • James 3:1–12
What we say matters. Are our words bringing death to those around us or are we bringing life? Continuing in James, Don Pearson challenges us to consider the power of our words.
A Living Faith
October 8, 2023 • Don Pearson • James 2:14–26
Is your faith on cruise control? Do you know your destination yet find yourself coasting along and missing significant moments that can bless others? Don Pearson helps us understand the direct connection between faith, gratitude, and works as we study the next section of the book of James.
How much of our lives are bent towards more, faster, more, faster? Continuing in James, Don Pearson challenges us to slow our pace and respond to the good news of Jesus.
Joy in Trials
September 17, 2023 • Don Pearson • James 1:1–6
Kicking off our series on James, Don Pearson invites us to consider that during seasons of great sorrow or pain we can find even greater joy in Christ.
