James

The Book of James is filled with powerful lessons that are convicting, thought-provoking and incredibly transformational. This devotional takes you through the biggest take-aways and helps relate the content to your everyday life.

Watch Your Mouth (And Other Convicting Biblical Life Lessons)

This 5-Day plan is taken from my book "James Scripture Journey: A 40-Day Bible Study on the Book of James." 
James, the half-brother of Jesus, pulls no punches. He wants you to have a faith that grows, a faith that is grounded, and a faith lived out. 

NOTE: This plan is like looking at "scenes" from the "movie" that is James. To get the most out of this plan, I recommend reading or listening to the whole book (about 15 minutes) so you can get a better grasp on the whole movie as you study the scenes! 

Faith Developed and Lived Out: James 1 in Action

Vance K. Jackson leads readers in this powerful devotional. God cannot be tempted with evil — neither does God tempt man. Let no man say when he is tempted that He’s tempted of God. Temptation does not come from God. God does not entice you to sin. Satan lures. The enemy entices. Satan wants to draw you away from communing and connecting with Christ. Surrender to Christ. 

 God Does Not Tempt Man

Journey through the 28 days of Advent by exploring every good gift that God has given through Scripture and stories from around the world. Walk through the themes of a good life, the good news, good deeds and good gifts found in the book of James.

Every Good Gift: A 28-Day Advent Devotional

The repeated cry of James is that faith apart from works can never be sustained. We should proclaim this truth because faith makes us doers of the Word, not just hearers. Faith keeps us humble, not proud; directs our tongues to bless, not to curse. Faith causes us to preach the good news to every tribe, tongue, and nation. This is the message of James: Faith/Works. Join Matt Chandler for 13 days going verse-by-verse through the book of James.

God made you for something more, something extraordinary—a purpose-filled, faith-filled, and peace-filled life. That’s why you're invited on this six-day journey.

From Ordinary to Extraordinary

The letter of James challenges, confronts and dives deep into what it means to be a Christ-follower. In this plan, we will dive deep into the wisdom that this letter brings forward. My prayer for you is that this letter will be a mirror to your soul as Christ is revealed through the Word of God.

Wisdom From James

How should we respond to life’s trials? James’ letter delivers the answer: whatever comes, choose to live by faith. James digs into our struggles with temptations, unsound speech, conflicts, hardships and injustice. Trials are not meant to keep us weak and worried, but to make us strong. God-given faith includes power to transform our thoughts, priorities, decisions and relationships.
