This Sunday, we will begin a brand new teaching series called, The Essential James. We will be taking the next 4 weeks to dig through most of the book of James. Each week we will be sending you short daily devotions that will prepare you for Sundays message. Below you will find daily devotions for chapter 1. The reading & questions should only take you a few minutes to go through.
We’re asking you to join us the next for weeks as we challenge ourselves to read through the book of James together. I really believe God has some awesome things He wants to reveal to all of us.
See you Sunday!
