Welcome to week five of our study on the Epistle of James! Today we will look at James 1:21-25 and Jen’s last video from her series, which focuses on prayer and people. We should strive to pray before, during if necessary, and after our study sessions as well as find a group of people to study with if we haven’t already. Thankfully we have that part covered with our small group, although it’s great to study with multiple groups as well!

Welcome to week four of our study on the Epistle of James! Today we will look at James 1:16-20 and today’s video focuses on application of the text. We want to ask ourselves when we are reading Scripture, “How should this change me? How should this change my life?” After all, part of the reason we study the Bible is so that it can impact our lives and change the way we live in order to please God and secure the salvation of our souls.
