In James 4:17–5:6 we’re reminded that sin isn’t just the bad things we do—it’s also the good things we leave undone. True faith is never passive. It moves. It acts. It changes lives. Don’t just hear the Word—do it. Step into the good works God prepared for you.

In a world that constantly pushes us to take control of our plans, our schedules, our relationships, James 4:13–16 reminds us of a better way. In this message, Pastor Nate confronts the illusion of control and the anxiety it produces. Through Scripture, and story, we’re invited to release our grip, open our hands, and trust the God whose plans are higher, wiser, and rooted in love. When we surrender what we cannot control, we make room for the peace, purpose, and power God longs to give us—because open hands receive what closed fists never will.

Pastor Nate encourages us to leave a critical spirit at the door, and walk in grace, love and truth. 

Pastor Nate encourages us to re-orient our lives towards God, as we are reminded that when we draw near to God, He draws near to us. 

Submission is the foundation, resistance is the fight, and victory is already won in Christ.

Pastor Nate reminds us that God loves and blesses a humble heart.

Pastor Nate gives us a reminder that compromise with the world is not only wrong, it’s dangerous for our lives. God wants the very best for us, and we can trust Him in what He says and what He asks of us.

Pastor Nate gives us an encouragement to walk in true wisdom rather than false wisdom as we grow in Christ.
