Take a Hard Look in the Mirror by Dr. Abidan Shah
This weekend, we will learn from James that obedience to God requires more than just hearing the Word. It takes action. We cannot merely listen to the things of God and then go away unchanged.

If you have been struggling to take action in your walk with God, perhaps it’s time to take a hard look in the mirror.
When God Gives You More Than You Can Bear by Dr. Abidan Shah
This weekend, we will examine the beginning of the book of James and the assurance of trials in our lives.

James seems to indicate there might be a deeper truth that we will discover this weekend.
When Life Seems Unfair by Abidan Shah, PhD
As we head toward the holidays, I want to begin a series that will help us sort through all of the emotions that these months can bring. Our culture talks about the importance of self-care, but what about spiritual self-care? In this weekend’s message, we will examine the life of Job. Although he encountered intense hardship, Job remained focused on God. This message will help us understand how to do that as well.
