"Reclaiming a Backslider" | Pastor Steve Gaines

About this sermon

In the final address from Pastor Steve Gaines' series on the book of James, he teaches from James 5:19-20 on how we can go about reclaiming a backslider. When a fellow believer loses sight of God's kingdom, we must do what we can to bring them back into the fold while also being realistic about the sin which has resurfaced.
