“The Orthodox Corpse” by Greg Chandler

The word dead is used in many different scenarios. Besides the cessation of life, we also use the word to describe our phones, car batteries, and appliances that have ceased functioning. As the New Testament writer James calls his audience to action, he also uses this word to describe faith unaccompanied by works, with the point that dead faith is no faith at all. This sermon will explore James’ admonitions toward good works. It will demonstrate that, far from drudgery, the opportunity to do good is how we show faith in action. A sermon given by Greg Chandler on April 13, 2025.
