This message was given on May 12th, 2021 during our Wednesday Night Student Service.  This is the first of several messages from the book of James and I am excited to start this series.  In this introduction we discuss when the book of James was written, who the author is, why it was written, and why we are going to study this book.  The overall theme for the series is "Faith produces Actions", and the point of this message is, "If James was able to surrender his life to his brother, what is keeping you from fully surrendering to Jesus Christ?"  I pray this is a blessing to you, as well as the remainder of this series. Please consider helping this podcast by liking, subscribing, and sharing, in order to help us spread the Gospel and grow our audience.  God bless you and thank you for listening.
