James 2 – Renovaré

Jim Pitzer acknowledges that James’ writing is convicting. It aims to hold us accountable to answering God’s call to a life of faith and action. Some view this life as too costly. There is, in fact, cost to inviting the Holy Spirit to establish the will of God within us; accepting his rules, his terms, his ways. It can be a real struggle to obediently do instead of watch. But our formed faith needs to continue to function. Personal interactions with others, especially in a place or situation that no one wants, can be the most profound. People need Jesus. The best part of this abundant life of faith and action is others experiencing Jesus Christ through us!
