Every Good Gift: A 5-Day Advent Devotional

In the early church, there was a distorted mindset that Christians, if saved by grace through faith, need not worry about their actions. James responded solemnly with this overarching idea in the letter: faith without works is dead. Therefore, he exhorts all believers with practical advice on how to overcome temptation, persevere in trials, treat others without favoritism, tame our tongues, and manage our wealth in God’s way. 

Through the Bible: James

The Book of James is a practical guide for Christian living, emphasizing faith in action. It addresses perseverance in trials, wisdom, the power of prayer, and good works as evidence of faith. James warns about the importance of taming the tongue, urging believers to control their speech. With straightforward teachings, it encourages authentic living, demonstrating faith through righteous deeds and a consistent, godly lifestyle.

Salvation is a gift that’s freely given to those who want it, but God doesn’t just meet us where we are—He calls us to more. We’re called to a life of action as we walk out our faith! As we study the book of James together, we’ll learn what it looks like to develop a faith that actually works.
