Sermon from January 4


Maturing in Our Faith in 09

James 1: 1 - 12


1. Do you feel closer to God – or farther away – than you did at this time last year?
2. The only path to maturity is through trials.
3. God loves you too much to let you stay where you are.
4. As we mature, we learn to trust God’s plans no matter how difficult they seem.
5. When we doubt, we block God’s desire to make us more mature.
6. The world sees success as having wealth, but God knows that wealth is fleeting.
7. Know that trials are only a test to prove to us that we belong to God, and push us toward maturity.
