God's best is the best for us — but how often do we get stuck trying to please people rather than God?

We continue our "Monday to Sunday: Living with Everyday Faith" sermon series; a twelve-week study within the book of James. This week we dove into chapter four, where James addresses communities experiencing spiritual compromise: being on fire for the Lord yet making decisions that lead towards unfaithfulness to Him.

Pastor Filmore teaches us that spiritual compromise festers when we develop close friendship and obedience to the world around us rather than God. Even small acts of disobedience leave us calloused and pull us from God's beauty. We become self-centered in our thinking, desires, and actions. This poses two questions: Why do we naturally struggle to submit ourselves to our Father? How do we remain faithful to Jesus?

We are walked through Pastor Filmore's proposed solution to remain faithful to Jesus. A journey in faith that is joyous, where even submission, as counter-intuitive as it may sound, leads to peace. A journey ultimately filled with grace.

Someone else's win is not your loss — God's not that small.

We continue our study within the book James. This week Filmore highlights a word passed around culturally yet holding unequivocal depth: wisdom. We are walked through a biblical framework of wisdom, breaking down two types and how they can shape our lives. Is your wisdom based on the world around you, leading to conflict, comparison, and envy? Or is it heavenly, bringing peace and love?

Join us this episode, continuing our "Monday to Sunday Faith" series, as we are encouraged to examine our desires and embrace honesty. When we see victories all around us and are impulsed to react, cultivating God's wisdom will bring peace to our relationships.

In this episode, we continue our series in the book of James, "Monday to Sunday Faith". We are all prone to believe that Christianity is either all about God doing good things for us OR us doing good things for God. Addison walks us through how God persuades us that His way is better than ours and when we surrender our life to him we will have a living faith, empowered by the Holy Spirit, who will produce good works in us, making us look more like Christ every day.

This Sunday, we explored the importance of walking in the way of love as followers of Christ. Filmore Bouldes emphasizes that God's love for us is not meant to be hoarded but should flow through us to others. True love, as defined by God, is always helpful and never harmful. By embracing God's boundaries over our bodies, desires, and words, we can live out the love of Christ in our relationships. The sermon also highlights the role of the Holy Spirit in empowering believers to love.
