He ends it with restoration.\nWhen someone wanders from the truth, what should Christians do? James calls believers to pursue them with truth and love. It’s a reflection of Jesus leaving the 99 to seek the one and His mission to seek and save the lost.\nThroughout this episode, we look back at the practical wisdom James has given us about prayer, perseverance, speech, suffering, forgiveness, faith, works, obedience, and living as true doers of God’s Word.\nWe also discuss an extraordinary story of forgiveness, the relationship between the teachings of James and Paul on faith and works, and why genuine faith should produce visible fruit in our lives.\nJames contains 108 verses and nearly 50 commands. Again and again, he calls believers to action.\nThe Word enters our ears, changes our hearts, transforms our speech, guides our relationships, directs our decisions, strengthens our endurance, and ultimately shapes our lives.\nAs we finish this series, the challenge isn’t simply to know more about the Bible.\nIt’s to become more like Christ.\nDon’t simply finish the Book of James. Live it.\n\nChapters\n00:00 Welcome to Practice the Word\n00:31 Stay in the Fight\n00:45 A Mother’s Bold Prayer\n03:07 The Power of Fervent Prayer\n03:35 Burn the Boat: No Plan B\n04:18 The Final Lesson From James\n04:42 James 5:19–20 — Restore the Wanderer\n05:44 Leaving the 99 for the One\n07:00 Are You Actually Practicing the Word?\n07:20 Restore With Truth and Love\n08:44 The New Testament Proverbs?\n09:34 James Calls Christians to Action\n09:57 108 Verses and Nearly 50 Commands\n10:49 How the Word Changes Your Life\n11:18 The Great Commission and James\n11:47 Facts About the Book of James\n13:09 Obey Without Hesitation\n14:04 The Illustrations of James\n14:57 Christians and Retaliation\n15:20 An Extraordinary Story of Forgiveness\n17:17 How Forgiveness Leads to...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/XhU8pSi-x3y3aWP-36y9rgKs-qTJNzpbqgmNZJ3EoJE/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS85ZDgw/MGI1YmU5NjIyM2U1/MDJhYzliZDU0N2Zk/Nzk2MS5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
