James A Faith That Works | Hard Times and Good Faith | Pastor Carlyle Naylor

James - Faith That Works Week 1 - Chapter 1:1-12
Faith is believing in something like there is something at stake. Could your faith in God and Jesus pass an authenticator test in your day-to-day living?
Trials in James refer to things that get in the way of normal living and disrupt or interrupt us. With that definition, what kinds of "trials" usually get the best of you?
Trials give us the opportunity to pass a "muster" test of faith. The test of faith is to show you the strength & depth of your faith - not to show God. When it comes to daily faith, what tests do you usually pass? Fail?
In what ways are trials simply challenges to learn and opportunities to grow? In what ways do they reveal who or what your faith is in?
When you are facing a challenge and need wisdom, where do you typically turn? How do you define wisdom?
How is your faith evident on the inside to you and apparent on the outside to others?
