Pastor Aaron continues our study of James with a hard hitting passage from chapter 2. James shows us how we must not show partiality or prejudice with our faith. We see how, if we do show partiality, it cheapens and weakens our faith and relationship in and with Christ.

We walk together through the final third of the first chapter of James today. There are some hard things to hear this week. We learn that we must be slow to anger, because anger does not bring the righteousness of God. We must cast off all filthiness and rampant wickedness in order to receive the meekness of the Word of God in our hearts, which saves our souls.

Join us as Pastor Aaron begins his sermon series through James. We begin by learning about how God is our rock and foundation through the trials of our life. We have to ask ourselves, is our faith firmly planted in Jesus? Or are we double-minded?

During our outdoor service, Pastor Aaron led us through Psalm 113. This is a psalm that would have been sung during Passover as a song of praise to God. We see the psalmist praising God by calling our attention to how high and majestic God is and how He rules over all the nations. But we also see how He lifts us out of the ash heap and into glory with Him.

This week, Pastor Aaron goes through Psalm 84 with us. We see how this is a song of celebration of a family coming back to God. The Sons of Korah was written as a song of Right Standing and coming back to God. This psalm shows us how we may go through a period of hard circumstances, but God is always there to give us strength to come through the situations we find ourselves in.

Pastor Aaron walks us through Psalm 103, written by King David. This psalm, or song, is a reflection of a more mature King David looking back at his life and realizing God's steadfast love and grace through every part of his life. We see that "Bless the Lord" really means a humbling of yourself through a physical kneeling and reverence toward God. And through that blessing, we receive the steadfast love of God.

Our youth pastor, Corben, walks us through what it means to have Christ as the Head of our lives and the Head of our spiritual walk with Him.
