This morning's passage helps us to see if we are truly wise, or only think we're wise!

James is on a holy tirade about the destructive nature of the untamed tongue.  He paints vivid pictures of how damaging it can be.  This morning we look at how to tame it.

Everyone showed up for church this morning carrying their most dangerous and destructive weapon. What is it, and why should we as Christians be concerned?

James continues to remind his readers that faith without works is dead.  A dead faith is ineffectual, empty, and worthless -- hardly a faith that will get you to heaven.  This morning, he continues to convince us that our faith needs to work with two illustrations - a patriarch and a prostitute.

This morning, an empty box of donuts demonstrates the quality and character of many "Christians" so-called faith.  How can you be sure your faith is real if there is no tangible evidence that it exists?

After a quick discussion about baptism and the Lord' Supper, we dive into James' caution about having a lop-sided judgmental attitude toward others.  Do you want to be judged mercifully before the Lord?  Here's how.

This morning we pause our study of James to do our annual spiritual health-check of the nation.  The party more aligned with biblical values won in November. Can we rest on our laurels and relax a bit?  No. The spread of false doctrine marches on zealously, infiltrating churches with a Jesus who is not biblical but "woke." 

The Bible is filled with commands not to play favorites, but to value all Christians equally.  Are we guilty of doing this? 

If Michael Jordan offered to tell you the key to great basketball playing, you'd listen intently. If Warren Buffet offered the secret to successful investing, you'd listen intently. This morning, God tells us the key to living a great Christian life.  Will you listen?

Guest speaker Dennis Barlow gives us some practical insights from the Book of Job.

In the exercise of our Christian walk, there are some things we need to quickly and some very slowly.  James hits on both speeds in this morning's discussion which helps us not to get stuck in the mud but to move forward in our Christian maturity "full strength ahead."

On this Memorial Day weekend, we look to James for a reminder as to why we should be so eternally thankful to be saved through the shed blood of Jesus.

What's your fallback plan in case faith in Jesus and obedience to His word doesn't work?  This morning, James tells us why some believers do not benefit from the trials of life -- it's because of their fallback plan.

Everyone suffers trials and tribulations whether it be the loss of a loved one or a health scare, but not everyone gleans wisdom from a time of crisis.  How can we make sure we grow through our trials?

Sometimes what we think that what is meant to take us down is actually used by God to build us up.  This morning, we look at why we should be joyful when undergoing suffering.

This morning we start a new series on the Book of James.  Before we get into the text, let's take a look at the incredible life of this man who went from being Jesus' skeptical little brother to a "pillar" of the early church.

Whom do you seek this Resurrection Sunday? Are you looking for Jesus?  If so, which Jesus?

We always celebrate Jesus' glorious entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday and His glorious resurrection on Easter Sunday, but this morning, we focus on the events that occur during the week between these two Sundays.  It's a rough week for Jesus but a great week for us.

Today is the final installment in our study of Daniel, and it ends with a bit of mystery.  

We will all stand before Jesus one day. When? For what purpose? This morning we will explore what the Bible says about our coming "Judgment Day."
