Words can either build others up or cut them down. What does James have to say about how our faith should change the way we speak to and about others?
James tells us, “Faith without deeds is dead’. How do we grapple with this statement alongside the belief that we are saved by grace alone? And what implication does it have for the way we live our lives?
Talk is cheap! It’s easy to say we have faith in Jesus without putting that faith into action. The book of James is a ‘how to’ manual sharing wisdom to help us live life the way Jesus is calling us to. Let’s put our faith to work!
Catch up with the 2018 Highgrove Vision Evening held on Tuesday 9 October.
In the last moments of his life, Joshua reaffirms his total devotion to God by making this declaration to Israel, “as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD" (Josh 24:15; see also Joshua 1:7). We see in Joshua a picture of God who is worthy of our all. How can we live a radically devoted life? What does it look like to choose God and not idols?
