Playing Favorites, Part 2

Playing Favorites, Part 2

I’m sure you have a favorite food, a favorite team, or a favorite vacation spot. But when it comes to the people around us, what Jesus calls our neighbors, the Lord asks us to play fair, not to play favorites. So how can we live a life free from partiality or favoritism? What would it look like in our day-to-day lives? Ron tackles the subject next, as he moves ahead in his teaching series, “James: A Faith That Works.”

Playing Favorites, Part 1

God has never been one to play favorites. And He doesn’t want us to play them, either. The book of James says there’s no place for discrimination or favoritism in the body of Christ. As he moves ahead in his teaching series, “James: A Faith That Works,” Ron challenges us to take a hard look at how we treat the people around us and, if necessary, make changes.

Religion That Works, Part 2

You can read about it, think about it, and talk about it. Or you can get out there and just do it. The word “religion” has a negative connotation in the world, and if you think about it, we don’t even like to use it in the church. But genuine religion doesn’t mean what we might think. As you’ll see today, it’s a transformational experience that leads to a life of submission to Jesus Christ and service to everyone else.

Religion That Works, Part 1

When your mouth is open, your ears might as well be closed. There’s a time for talking, and a time for listening. And because God gave us two ears and only one mouth, we should probably do a whole lot more of the latter. Stay with us now as Ron moves ahead in his teaching series, “James: A Faith That Works.”

Winning the War Within, Part 2

Tired of being reeled in by temptation? With God’s help, you don’t have to take the bait. First, there’s desire within us. Next, there’s deception around us. Today, Ron takes an in-depth look at what comes next as he moves ahead in his teaching series, “James: A Faith That Works.”
