In this sermon pastor William continues our series on the book of James and speaks on how we shouldn't have favoritism for others. As James 2:1-13 says: "If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture, “Love your neighbor as yourself,” you are doing right. But if you show favoritism, you sin and are convicted by the law as lawbreakers. For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it."". We must treat all people regardless of wealth, social status, or education as we would any other person. In Christ Jesus, there is no rich or poor, educated or uneducated, qualified or unqualified, only royal sons and daughters of God.

In this sermon our speaker Michael Dombrowski goes over James 2:13-27, speaks on abiding in The Bible even when you are being tested. The book is a mirror, a mirror that reflects you and it reflects Jesus when you read it. Even when it may be discomforting it's still important to abide in the book, the mirror, because it's law, because it's beautiful, because when you abide in the book God will heal all.

In this sermon, we begin a new series on the epistle of James. And in this first talk, We'll be looking at suffering and glory, James 1:1-12. But first, some background to this letter. It was written by James, who was the brother of Jesus. We can only imagine how complex and challenging it must have been to be a sibling of the Son of God, the Messiah, the one who sits at the Father's right hand in glory. To be family to Jesus must have been a difficult thing to comprehend.

This week, Pastor William spoke about prayer and what we can learn from Jesus about priestly prayer. How Jesus spent prolonged periods of time in prayer. How we should follow that example in prayer to grow closer to God.

In this sermon, we return to our series on being a royal priesthood and a holy nation. That famous description of the church by the Apostle Peter. And the question we've been asking throughout this series is, what does it look like for us as a body to be priestly? What does it mean for Christians to be a holy priesthood?

This week pastor William spoke on giving, financial giving. He speaks on giving out of love. He starts not by looking at money specifically, but by looking at God. For the purpose of preaching is to glorify God. We point towards the nature of God. And God himself is a giver.

In this week's sermon our guest speaker Reverend Derek Rust speaks on how to do evangelism. Even if you aren't the biggest evangelist, you still have ways to spread the word of God and bring more people to him! Through spreading prayer for people, helping others build things, sharing your love and hope with others, and even inviting them to the church and surrounding functions!

In this sermon our guest speaker Reverend Tuck Bartholomew speaks on how you should abide in Jesus. Looking at John 15 and the image of the grapevine. How sometimes even in times of momentary discomfort these things are just preparation. How even in moments of uncertainty and confusion you still must abide in Jesus.
