Faith in ActionWhat is the greatest challenge to your faith at this moment? Every generation of Christians face circumstances, trials which challenge their faith or tempts them to compromise. On the road to Christian maturity, we traverse difficulties which develop character. True faith not only soars on wings of strong belief, but it is also grounded in the gritty reality of daily life. True religion is intensely practical and cannot ignore human need.
James warns against worthless religion that makes no practical difference to the way we live. He states faith without works is dead and challenges us to consider our actions as much as our piety. The Book of James is not a Sunday read for our pleasure, but a strong dose of Christian reality to jolt our senses. In this sermon series we explore what James calls true religion and see faith in action. |
