James: A Faith that Works (Week 4: Faithful Living and Prayer)

Prayer should be our first response to every situation, not our last resort when everything else fails. The Book of James teaches us to live differently as Christians by giving ourselves wholly to the Lord rather than compromising with worldly values. This means letting our faith produce good works, using our words to build others up, practicing humility, and handling our resources with others in mind. When we're troubled, we should pray. When we're happy, we should sing praise. When we're too weary to pray alone, we should call on our church community for support. Elijah serves as an example of how ordinary people can pray earnestly and see God move powerfully in response.
