Made to be Whole

James 5:7-11

Today we wrap up our first pre-launch sermon series, "Made to be Whole"! And we will end it where we started it - looking for hope even in the midst of suffering. The book of James provides us with a unique perspective as we try to process pain and suffering in our own life and reminds us to keep the hope of Jesus alive in our hearts.

James 5:13-20

Our prayer life can often feel stagnant or awkward - like being on an uncomfortable first date. We're not really sure who is supposed to do the talking, why the other person is so quiet or if they even really want to be there with you. However, it doesn't have to be this way! Today we explore more of what an engaging, meaningful prayer life looks like.

James 4:1-17

Did you know how much God longs to be your friend? Have you ever thought about that? The One who hung the stars in the sky longs to be friends with you! Not only that, but He has gone to great lengths to restore His friendship with you.

James 3:1-18

We are relational beings. We were designed to give and to receive in relationship with others. We were made in God's image and since God is a relational God, we become more like Him when we live out our relationships more like Him - loving others.

James 1:19-27

Doing things our way and setting ourselves up to be the most important thing in our life can lead to a fractured existence. Knowing that God is in control and having the wisdom to see His ways are better takes humility. And for that reason, humility is often the first step in being made whole in God's love.

James 1:2-18

God never desires for us to suffer. Nor does he cause suffering. However, suffering can be an opportunity to see what actually matters in life - that is, knowing and loving God, and being known and loved by Him.
