We conclude the foundational truths that help us in times of trials.  Life's problems lead us to the best help in times of trials.  God grants wisdom and gives it liberally according to James 1:5-8.

James 1:5-8 gives us a foundation for helping us in times of trials.  Sometimes trials lead us to seek wisdom from God.  These practical applications help us face trials and grow as the result.

Trials come to help us grow spiritually.  Often trials prove what the substance of our faith is.  This is the first half of the 5th message in this series.

From James 1:2-4, we examine some ways that God may be preparing us for greater usefulness.  This is the second half of the message from part 3.  Hope you find this practical for daily living.

The series in James continues as we look for practical ways to "count in all joy" when trials and troubles come in your life.  This continues thoughts previously considered.

A new year is time for a fresh start and new beginnings.  Hopefully this will challenge you to look beyond the past and encourage a fresh relationship with the Lord.

This Holiday season is so often difficult for many.  This looks at the attitude of all those around the birth of Jesus Christ.  In a world with little or no peace, how can we have peace and joy?

This is the practical look for us to use when trials come.   It is so difficult while going through a problem to have a joyful outlook, but James shows us how to deal with such.

James 1:2-12 teaches us how to find joy when going through trials.  As we consider all that James shows us, we see the practical aspects for our day.

This is the conclusion to the introduction.  Our series on the book of James is well received and practical.  See how useful this is in our modern age.
