Join us on Facebook Live every Wednesday as we navigation the inspirational and challenging book of James.
Lesson 4: Perspective . . . Boasting About The Right Things
Questions:
- Who does James say should “boast,” and why (1:9)?
- What does the author want to see happen (1:10)?
- What does the grass represent (1:11)? Read Isaiah 40:6 and compare to 1 Peter 1:24.
Preparation
James provides a radical approaching to facing challenges, trials and afflictions. Determine if your perspective about your life is in order. Do you have “priorities” that need to be re-evaluated after reading today’s verses?
