August 23, 2026 James 2:14-26 unmasks false expressions of faith and reveals the face of true, saving faith in Christ. By clarifying often-misunderstood terms, we will discover how genuine faith expresses itself through love for Christ and obedience to His Word. James 2:14-26
August 16, 2026 James continued his exhortation to Christians to follow God's moral standards rather than the world's standards. In this section he commanded Christians not to show partiality, meaning show no preference or favor to one person over another on the basis of outward appearances. James gave a troubling example of showing partiality to a rich man over a poor in the church, and how…
August 9, 2026 Having called believers to faithful obedience to God's Word, James concludes the chapter with three marks of authentic religion (James 1:26-27). We honor Christ's perfect, royal law by exercising self-control in our speech, showing compassionate care for the vulnerable, and pursuing a life of personal holiness. Where these qualities are absent, James warns that our religion is not…
August 2, 2026 Which would you rather be, blessed or deceived? Silly question, right? Given a choice, we would choose blessing every time. However, when we know about God in His Word but do not act on it, we are deceived. This is not an information problem. This is a heart problem that the Holy Spirit enables us to overcome. James 1:21-25 teaches us that knowing the Word and acting upon it results…
July 26, 2026 Anger is a very human emotion. And with it, comes all sorts of problems. Just like all of our human traits and emotions, anger can reflect the image of God that we bear. But most often, it gets the better of us and what we reflect is something far less than God’s righteousness. Our text will help us address this problem and set a course for producing the righteousness of God. James…
July 19, 2026 James provides two motivations for Christians not to give in to temptation. The first is the truth that succumbing to temptation leads to a destructive, deadly outcome. The second is the goodness and unchanging character of God. Our response to temptation will reveal if we truly believe God is always good and the giver of all the good we could ever want or need. James 1:16-18
July 12, 2026 Trials are inevitable, but our response defines us. Testing is God's sovereign tool for growth, while temptation is the heart's internal pull toward sin. To 'Raise the Standard' in our lives, we must distinguish between God's refining tests and our own desires, ensuring we do not blame God for the sinful reactions that rise from within our hearts and minds. James 1:12-15 provides the…
July 5, 2026 We live in a world that ascribes value and status based upon wealth, creating an enduring divide between "The Have’s" and "The Have Not’s". However, for those "in Christ," status is defined not by wealth but by our secure position as children of God. This identity will be constantly tested by worldly pressures, requiring us to remain steadfast by fixing our eyes on Him, refusing to…
James 1:5-8
June 21, 2026 Everyone goes through trials and temptations. We can either respond in a Christlike way or in a worldly way. When we raise the standard of our response to trials to Christ’s standard, the Lord matures our faith and builds up our spiritual endurance. Confident in God’s character and what He will produce in us, James challenges us to face every trial with pure joy. James 1:1-4
June 14, 2026 Life is a series of choices. For the believer, God demands more than human wisdom or worldly standards; He calls us to align our lives with THE Standard: Jesus Christ. In his epistle, James provides practical instruction for godly wisdom, challenging the Church to prove the genuineness of their faith through transformed lives. This sermon series will call and equip each of us to…
