Scripture

James 1:19–27

About this sermon

"The life-giving word" - James warns us about the most dangerous lie of all: self-deception. James challenges us not just to hear God’s word, but to do it. Hearing without obedience doesn’t save. Disturbingly, it only deceives. True religion is truth that actually changes us.
