Sermon Series: Essentials

No other New Testament book challenges God’s people to live like God’s people the way the book of James does. Yet amidst all the practical wisdom, James makes one thing crystal clear: a life for Christ is not just a private, personal endeavor. True living for Christ is done in community, too – it’s the Church learning how to be the Church. And that’s more than just a nice idea. It’s essential.

No Place Like Home

Naomi and her husband leave Bethlehem (Bethlehem means house of bread) during a famine and go to Moab where God had told people not to go. Once they get there, Naomi's husband and two sons die and they go back to Bethlehem because God was providing. We often leave God's house of bread - biblical community - and go where we shouldn't. And once everything goes sideways, we end up having to go back to where we started.
