FAITH AND TEMPTATION (Faith Everywhere, Week 3)

Is there something that you do that you wish you could stop... but you can't? Where can you and I turn to be different than the people we used to be? Join us as we explore these questions through the lens of James 1:13-18.“When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death. Don’t be deceived, my dear brothers and sisters. Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of all he created.” (James 1:13–18, NIV)
