To experience new life in Christ or to experience life to the fullest in Christ, we must humble ourselves before him. We must look to Jesus, see how far we fall short, and be humbled by his amazing and greater grace. James 4:7-10.

Christians sin... but do we take our sin seriously? Do we really understand the ugly truth about sin for believers? Often, the answer is no. James wants us to see the reason why we sin and the effect it has on our relationship with Christ. James 4:1-6

Everyone lives by one of two wisdoms: earthly or heavenly. So, what is the difference between wisdom from above and wisdom from below? How can we know which one we, and others, are living by? Join us in James 3:13-18 to find out.

While we often think our greatest battle is with our actions, that's actually not true. Our greatest battle is with our words, and they are the greatest indicator of what is truly in our hearts.  James 3:1-12

Just as it is only through the power of God's word that we can have new birth in Christ, we can only experience new life in Christ through the power of his word. Join us as we talk about how the word enables us to live our new life in Christ. James 1:19-25

We will all battle sin and temptation. Join us as we learn from James's writings of how we can see the sin in our lives rightly and fight against it. James 1:13-18.
