This Sunday, we're diving deeper into James, and this time, we're talking about mirrors. It might sound a bit strange, but James has a single question for you. Which mirror do you look into? The one that shows you your reflection, or the one that reflects God's Word? The first one is just a cheap substitute that won't change your life. But the second one? It's a game-changer. It transforms you and leads you to lasting, practical changes. That's exactly what we need when life throws us challenges and tests our faith. It's how we find joy that truly lasts. So, join us this Sunday at 10:30 am, and bring a friend!

“But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves. For if you listen to the word and don’t obey, it is like glancing at your face in a mirror. You see yourself, walk away, and forget what you look like. But if you look carefully into the perfect law that sets you free, and if you do what it says and don’t forget what you heard, then God will bless you for doing it.” (James 1:22–25 NLT-SE)

Pure religion, the sermon argues, involves two main things: listening intently to God's word and living it out obediently and intentionally. It emphasizes the importance of actively engaging with God's word and allowing it to transform behavior, leading to a life that reflects Christ's teachings and character.
Have you ever tried to convince yourself of something? Here's an example: Due to our occasional "stinking thinking", our mode of thinking might be a little on the negative side at times. The world around us tells us that if we turn to self-help books, videos, or teachings so that we can change our direction of thinking into the contrary. Although this might help a little, when we do this we are actually "kidding" (fooling) ourselves into something that is not definite. In today's teaching of our continuing series "Faith & Action" our study of the book of James, Pastor Ben teaches us about the importance of turning to God's Word (aka the Bible) so that we can get a true heart, mind, and spirit changing experience every time that we read it. With God's Word we are never kidding, fooling, or trying to convince ourselves of anything, rather we are allowing God to come into our hearts and change us for His purposes. The best self-help book available to all of us is God's Word. It's the only one that can truly read us as we read it. So, are you ready to quit kidding yourself?

Hearers and Doers
“Are you listening? Did you hear me?” At some point we have either said or heard this, and it is usually asked because an instruction was given…and then not followed through on. James addressed this type of behavior in scripture, and calls for people to be both “Listeners and Doers” of the Word. It’s one thing to read about scripture and hear from God, but are we ready to actually DO everything he tells us to…or what just feels comfortable to do?

How can I know the genuineness of my faith? I’ve been going through test and trials and I think I have been enduring like James has been speaking to, but I’m still in the trial. How do I know if I am genuinely standing in faith or just stuck in a bad place? Wouldn’t it be great if we could go through a self test to see? Well, James tells us how to do it as we take on the rest of chapter 1 beginning with verse 19 in tonight’s midweek service.

In all of the trials and turmoils our world is facing today, many Christians want to point out the wrong ways others are acting. Maybe we should take the time to think about what God thinks about how Christians are acting? Sermon Outline @ https://my.bible.com/events/26798619

Alex Kocman brings a sermon from God's Word on James 1:19-27 and the effects of God's Word in our lives. He discusses anger, which does not accomplish the righteousness of God, and how to obey God's Word.
This week we continue our sermon series on James and break down what he believed real faith entails.
Religion that is pure and undefiled before God the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world. James 1:27
Let everyone be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger.

God calls us into action in our daily lives in knowing and serving Him. But as we will see in James 1:19-27, what we learn in our head sometimes never reaches our heart. Come learn with us about the importance of being a doer of God's word.
