In this message Pastor Chad walks us through James 1 where we're called to not only LISTEN to the WORD but to DO WHAT IT SAYS. The miracle growth of the kingdom is OBEDIENCE to the WORD and WAY of JESUS. Many of us have heard so many messages, listened to many podcasts, attended a plethora of conferences and we often live with an illusion of our maturity because we've cognitively learned many things...but Jesus says, if you LOVE ME, you will OBEY ME. Obedience is always costly, seldom convenient but it is the way we grow up in the grace of Christ together.
