Welcome to WBSG with hosts Pastor Chad and Kim Wier. 

In today's episode, we're diving into Day 1 of our "7 Day Reset" series, focusing on the book of James. Together, we explore the contrasting concepts of "joy" and "trials" in religious texts, emphasizing how perseverance and spiritual growth emerge from life's challenges.

Kim shares insightful reflections on God's wisdom, highlighting that trials aren't punishments but opportunities for personal and spiritual development. Our host Chad draws from James 1:1-18, underscoring the importance of building endurance and finding joy in trusting God's plan through life's trials.

We introduce the RAMP method—Read, Apply, Meditate, Pray—to guide our listeners in engaging with scripture, fostering a deeper connection with God's word. Throughout the episode, we discuss practical applications, share personal stories, and encourage a mindset shift toward viewing trials as pathways to spiritual completeness.

Stay tuned as we embark on this enriching journey through the book of James, beginning with today's focus on growing through trials and finding joy in the outcomes they produce. Don't miss the insights and inspiration from this conversation that aims to reset your faith and perspective.
