James 5:13-20 – The Importance of Prayer
Parting last words. There is an element of weight and importance to them. In these parting last words of James, the author has a very simple message: never stop praying. Not only is prayer important because it keeps our thoughts focused on God, but it also connects us with him. It is when we are connected that he is most likely to do mighty things through us. God does not ask us to be amazing. He simply asks us to…

In this sermon, Pastor Kyle examines these dangers and then shows what we should do instead. You cannot serve both God and money, so you must choose which one will take priority. Sermon…

James 4:1-12 – Who Is Your Friend?
After a short break we continue through our series in James. In this passage, James will talk about two types of friendships: with the world and with God. One will lead to a life of chaos.

Matthew 21:1-11 – Why Are You Cheering For Jesus?
