Hope from Hardship

We kick off our sermon series through the New Testament Book of James. As we dive into our series we see that James offers us very practical guidance for how to live out our faith. In fact, our faith is best formed through action. It is much easier to believe something is true, than to actually live it out. Our hope is for our lives to become more like Jesus as we learn how to intentional live out what we believe. One of the most important points of the sermon is the call to Joy in hardship. There is a promise that God is working in the difficult seasons and we can find joy even in the most devastating circumstance because God is at work in us forming us to be like Christ.
