A mid-week message from the Pastor:
Costa Stathakis writes this: "In the opening of his letter, James gives us hope by reminding us that our life's difficulties, trials, and temptations give us an opportunity to grow. However, we need to stop and reflect on our situation: Are our present difficulties of our own doing? In what ways might these circumstances build our character? We cannot accomplish life's purpose through the attainment of ease or luxurious comfort. We accomplish life's purpose only in the achievement of Christlike character."
Have a blessed week,
Pastor John
