Pastor Darrison's sermon, The Book of James Part 4: ANYTHING YOU CAN DO I CAN DO BETTER, is a powerful call to step beyond the world's standards of success and into a life fully surrendered to God. Instead of chasing “better” to impress others, he challenges us to choose different—the kind of faith that stands out, not for recognition, but for transformation. Drawing from James 4, Ephesians 2, and other scriptures, he reveals that our struggles often come from misplaced desires, but God's grace is always greater. True fulfillment isn't found in striving but in surrender—dying to self, as Galatians 2:20 and Philippians 1:21 remind us, so that Christ can fully live through us. Though choosing God's way may bring criticism, it also brings an unshakable identity, purpose, and the kind of faith that changes lives. The altar isn't just a place to cry—it's where we lay everything down and step into the anointing God has prepared for us. This message is a bold reminder that when we stop fighting for control and let God lead, He takes us places we never imagined.

James 5 delivers powerful lessons about authentic faith manifested through righteous actions. It addresses the dangers of spiritual pride and emphasizes the importance of patience in spiritual growth. The chapter provides guidance on handling suffering through prayer, community support, and complete reliance on God. Key themes include the proper perspective on wealth, the power of faithful prayer, the role of church elders in healing, and the vital importance of Christian community in spiritual development.Key Verses: James 5:7-8, James 5:13-15, James 5:16, James 5:19-20Key Takeaways:True faith is demonstrated through righteous actions, not just church attendance.Spiritual growth and transformation is usually a slow, patient process.Suffering can be essential for spiritual growth and drawing closer to God.Community and confession are vital parts of the Christian walk.Prayer should be our first response, not complaint.Reflection Questions:How do you typically respond to suffering in your life - with prayer or complaint?How has suffering played a role in your spiritual development?What makes it difficult to confess our sins to others?How can we better support each other in our spiritual walks?What's the difference between showing up to church and truly submitting to Christ?How can we ensure our faith is being demonstrated through our actions?Practical Application:This week, identify one area where you've been complaining instead of praying.

It's the conclusion to "The Jolly Corner"! Spencer Brydon lived in Europe for 33 years (as did his creator, Henry James) before returning to his childhood home in New York City. Europe has changed him - and he can't help thinking, as he observes a highly transformed New York, that he'd have been a very different person had he stayed in America during those crucial decades at the end of the nineteenth century. He finds himself roaming his old deserted house on "the jolly corner" late at night, hunting for the phantom of the self that might-have-been, until he finally sees something that shocks him into unconsciousness. In this episode, Jacke presents the rousing conclusion to this fascinating story of nostalgia, regrets, wonder, selfhood, friendship, and terror. PLUS Irish novelist and essayist Colm Tóibín (The Master, On James Baldwin) stops by to discuss his selection for the last book he will ever read. Enjoy!

In James 2, faith isn't just about what we say—it's about how we live. Pastor Travis challenges believers to move beyond just talking the talk and start walking the walk. Even demons believe in God, but real faith is seen in action, not just words. James warns against favoritism, reminding us that God shows no partiality and neither should we. True faith isn't just belief—it's obedience. Faith without works is dead, and counterfeit Christians put on a show rather than living out their faith. Using examples from Abraham and others, the message calls us to trust, obey, and demonstrate our faith through love, action, and sacrifice. Faith obeys even when it doesn't understand. It's time to stop playing and start walking the walk!

After spending decades in Europe, the American Henry James felt haunted by the idea that he'd given up something essential. Inspired by a trip home to New York City, the place of his birth, he wrote an astonishing story about a man who creeps through his childhood home late at night, searching for ghosts, and one in particular he's desperate to see: the American version of himself that didn't ever get a chance to live.

Although the writer Henry James (1843-1916) was born in New York City's Washington Square, he spent most of his adulthood in Europe, where he wrote such masterpieces as The Portrait of a Lady, The Wings of the Dove, and The Golden Bowl. Late in life, he returned to New York after a thirty-three year absence to find the city much transformed, as skyscrapers and grand public buildings - museums and libraries and opera houses - now dominated the scene. In this episode, Jacke reads and comments upon the opening of James's 1908 story "The Jolly Corner," in which a man revisits his childhood home in New York after a thirty-three year absence and finds himself chasing memories, ghosts, and other figments of his imagination.

Pride takes many forms in our lives, often disguising itself as virtue while poisoning our relationships and spiritual growth. From worldly pride that seeks status and approval, to neglectful pride that avoids dependence on God and others, to perfectionist pride that demands flawless execution, these manifestations can deeply impact our daily walk. The effects become particularly evident in our relationships, where judgmental and controlling attitudes create barriers to authentic connection and spiritual growth. Pride can turn faith into a measuring stick for comparison, leading us to magnify others' faults while ignoring our own. The path to overcoming pride involves embracing Jesus' model of servant leadership and finding our true identity in Christ rather than in our accomplishments. This transformation requires intentional examination of our hearts, surrender of control, and the practice of extending grace to others. True humility emerges not from thinking less of ourselves, but from thinking of ourselves less, allowing God's transformative work to shape us into Christ's image.Key Verses:James 4:6James 4:7-8James 4:10Philippians 2:3-8Key Takeaways:Pride manifests in many forms beyond just arrogance - including perfectionism, self-reliance, and false humility.True humility isn't thinking less of yourself, but thinking of yourself less.Spiritual pride can be especially dangerous because it often disguises itself as righteousness.The opposite of pride isn't just humility - it's Jesus and His example.Success in God's kingdom is measured by spiritual growth and faithfulness, not accomplishments.Reflection Questions:What are some ways that worldly pride manifests in our modern culture?How can perfectionism be a form of pride? Have you struggled with this?What's the difference between true humility and false humility?How does pride affect our relationships with others?In what ways might spiritual pride show up in our church community?What's the connection between self-reliance and pride?How can we maintain healthy ambition without falling into pride?What practical steps can we take to cultivate genuine humility?Practical Application:This week, whenever you catch yourself in a moment of pride (whether it's perfectionism, judgment of others, or self-reliance), pause and consciously redirect your focus to serving others and glorifying God instead of yourself. Instead of asking, "Where can I improve?" ask, "What parts of me need to die so I can look more like Him?"Support the show

The early Christian church experienced remarkable growth within 15 years of Pentecost, spreading through ordinary believers across the known world. Early Jewish Christians faced severe social and economic persecution for their faith, including family rejection and business losses. Two major distortions emerged: hyper-legalism demanding Torah observance for salvation, and hyper-grace dismissing the need for moral behavior. True biblical salvation encompasses justification by faith, sanctification through works, and ultimate glorification, while emphasizing the power of words to reflect heart condition.Key Verses:James 3:1James 3:5-6Luke 6:45Matthew 12:36-37Key Takeaways:The early church faced significant persecution and sacrificed everything for their faith.Two major distortions of the gospel - hyper-legalism and hyper-grace - continue to challenge the church today.Our words have tremendous power to either build up or destroy.True wisdom from above is pure, peace-loving, and full of mercy.Authentic faith requires real surrender and will cost us something.Reflection Questions:How does understanding the historical context of early Christians help us better understand their struggles and sacrifices?What are some ways you see the distortions of hyper-legalism or hyper-grace in today's church?How do you balance grace and obedience in your own walk with Christ?What does it mean that 'the tongue is a fire'?

Faith and works are inseparable components of genuine Christian life. While salvation comes through faith alone, authentic faith naturally produces good works as evidence of heart transformation. These works manifest primarily as acts of mercy - helping those in need, showing forgiveness, and extending grace to others. Through biblical examples like Abraham and Rahab, we see how true faith inevitably leads to obedient action. This understanding challenges believers to examine whether their faith is producing tangible evidence through acts of love and mercy.Key Verses:James 2:14-26Deuteronomy 6:4Romans 4:1-4Matthew 23:17Key Takeaways:True faith results in works.Faith without works is dead.Mercy is a crucial expression of faith.Understanding scripture requires context.Our actions should reflect the mercy and love we've received from God.Reflection Questions:What does it mean for faith to be 'dead' without works?How can we ensure our faith is reflected in our actions?Why do you think James uses Abraham and Rahab as examples?How can we show mercy in our daily interactions?What are some practical ways to live out our faith in our community?How do you reconcile the teachings of James and Paul regarding faith and worksWhat role does mercy play in your personal relationships?How can we as a church community support each other in living out our faith?Practical Application:This week, identify one area in your life where you can show mercy or perform an act of kindness.

Week 4 of our series in the book of James emphasizes the sin of favoritism and the importance of showing mercy as a reflection of true faith. James challenges the early Christians, and us today, to avoid making distinctions based on wealth or status, reminding us that in God's kingdom, all are equal. The sermon also highlights the need for the church to be a welcoming place for all, regardless of their background or current struggles, and to embody the mercy and love of Jesus Christ.Key Verses:James 2:1-13Leviticus 19:18Matthew 20:26-28Luke 14:11Romans 12:1-2Key Takeaways:True faith is demonstrated through mercy.Favoritism is incompatible with the teachings of Jesus.The church should be a welcoming place for all, regardless of status or background.Understanding the historical context of scripture enhances our comprehension and application.Living out our faith requires us to act differently from the world.Reflection Questions:What does favoritism look like in today's context, and how can we avoid it?How does showing mercy reflect our faith in Jesus?Why is it important to understand the historical context of the Book of James?In what ways can the church be more welcoming to those who are different from us?How can we ensure that we are not conforming to the world's standards within the church?What does it mean to 'love your neighbor as yourself' in practical terms?How can we balance addressing bad ideas while still showing love to the personWhat steps can we take to deepen our reverence for the Word of God?Practical Application:This week, challenge yourself to show mercy to someone who may not expect it.

Remember back in chapter 1 verse 22, where James wrote: “But be doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves”? Essentially stating that our works should reflect our faith and if they don't you may want to reevaluate your faith. This next portion of scripture, James 2:14-26, expands further on that thought. You ready? Let's dig in. Verses: James 2:14-26, James 1:22, Luke 4:31-34, Genesis 15:6, Joshua 2:8-11, Ephesians 2:8-11, Matthew 5:14-16 Unless otherwise noted, all Scripture references are from the English Standard Version.

This week's sermon from the Book of James focuses on the importance of being doers of the Word, not just hearers.

The sermon challenges believers to rid themselves of moral filth, humbly receive the implanted Word, and live out their faith through actions that reflect the teachings of Jesus. It highlights the need for Christians to be distinct from the world, showing love and truth through their actions, and warns against empty religion that lacks genuine transformation.Key Verses:James 1:19-27Proverbs 10:19Proverbs 17:27-28Ecclesiastes 5:2Luke 9:23Key Takeaways:True faith is demonstrated through self-control, obedience, and action.Being a doer of the Word requires humility and a willingness to change.Empty religion lacks genuine transformation and action.Christians are called to be distinct from the world, showing love and truth.The Gospel requires an outward action that reflects an inward change.Reflection Questions:What does it mean to be 'quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger' in our daily lives?How can we ensure that we are not just hearers of the Word, but doers as well?In what ways can we rid ourselves of 'moral filth' and receive the implanted Word?Why is self-control an important aspect of our faith?How can we demonstrate our faith through actions in our community?What are some practical steps we can take to control our tongue?How does the concept of 'pure and undefiled religion' challenge our current practices?What role does humility play in receiving and acting on God's Word?Practical Application:This week, identify one area in your life where you can better align your actions with your faith.
