The Letter of James

Trials into Triumphs

February 9, 2020 • Bryan Dugger • James 1:1–12

Everyone struggles and fights through trials; it is simply a natural part of life in a fallen world. But we as Christians do not struggle without hope. Indeed, we struggle with the hope that all of our trials, in Christ, will be turned into triumphs.

Handling Temptation

February 16, 2020 • Bryan Dugger • James 1:13–18

Temptation often visits the heart of the Christian. It comes in various forms and varieties, but we can be sure of this: God never tempts us. He may allow temptation to come to us, but this is only ever done so that we may grow closer to Him.

Hearing and Doing

February 23, 2020 • Ethan Kerns • James 1:19–25

True faith for the believer does not stop at hearing or understanding the Word of God. Indeed, true faith involves both hearing and doing the Word.

Pure Religion

March 1, 2020 • Bryan Dugger • James 1:26–27

Fake Christianity is alive and well in the modern American church. But how do we know what is fake and what is real? James teaches his audience that real Christianity will be revealed in practical holiness. Or, in other words, the gospel-change that is made in the soul will be evident in the Christian life.
