James

God’s Gifts

James 1:16-18

God gives good gifts. He provides the gift of salvation, the gift of forgiveness, and gift of His presence just to name a few.

God’s gifts make us stronger in our faith, more secure in our future, and more settled in our convictions.

Even trials and tests are a blessing because they produce in us the strength to stand firm in our faith.

This coming Sunday, we will look at James 1:16-18, discovering how to identify when gift comes from God.

We meet at 9:30 am. at 740 N. 129th Street along the West Dodge corridor in Omaha, Nebraska. If you are uncomfortable in attending in person, check out our Facebook page, SpiritOfFaithOmaha, or our YouTube channel. Come grow with us as we seek to share the joy of knowing Jesus Christ.  

A Race with a Reward

Not all races come with a reward. For many races the primary reward is to be able to simply say that you “won!”
You beat out the competition.
The Bible describes this life as a race, but this “race” comes with a reward. In James 1:12, that reword is called “the crown of life.” It’s promised by God to be given to all “who love Him.”
But what exactly is that crown of life?
We would like to invite you to join us this coming Sunday as we look into James 1:12, discovering to what this crown refers along with how we receive the reward.

Passing the Test

Graduation is a mark of completion. From whatever you are graduating from, it indicates that you have the passed the test and are ready for what’s coming next.
As long you are living, you continue to face tests of various kinds. Some are easy and others are difficult at best.
Most of life’s tests are not written down and graded. Maturity is needed to continue to move forward.
God’s Word helps prepare us for the tests of life. It provides answers to some of the tests and insights for overcoming all of the tests.

Triumphing Over Trials

How do you introduce yourself? How do others introduce themselves to you?
Often, we introduce ourselves by our occupations, by your background, by relationships for some other appropriate response that seeks to create a connection between you and the person with whom you are speaking.
But what if all you had to give was your first name, and the other person knew who you were and the importance you have simply by a first name.
Such was the way that James, the biblical writer of book of James introduced himself, simply saying, “James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ.”
Join us as we look at the opening verse to the book of James as we discover the great significance of so few words of introduction.
