Wisdom From Somone Who Knew Jesus Best
If being with Jesus is the best way to become like him and do
what he did, few people were closer to Jesus than his brother
James. So, when James writes to followers of Jesus, it
shouldn’t surprise us that James sounds just like Jesus. His
short letter, written to apprentices of Jesus nearly 2,000 years
ago, is shockingly relevant and universally applicable to
disciples of Jesus today.

Primary TextJames 1:12-15
You want to get from your house to work in under 10 minutes, but it will require you to drive 120mph. You know exactly how to accrue a six-figure income in a way that requires you to go against your morals. You are able to have your cake and eat it too if you don’t share it with anyone else.
You can accomplish your will in all of these situations. But they all require you to go outside the will of the law, your morals, and your standing in your community (it’s hard to like someone who doesn’t share cake!)
In this week’s message from the letter of James, we unpack a series of difficult verses that warn us against accomplishing anything in a manner that falls outside of God’s will.
Homework
– Identify our signature sins
– Pray every day that God would shape your desires
