Dragged Away from the Way

You want to get from your house to work in under 10 minutes, but it will require you to drive 120mph. You know exactly how to accrue a six-figure income in a way that requires you to go against your morals. You are able to have your cake and eat it too if you don’t share it with anyone else.

You can accomplish your will in all of these situations. But they all require you to go outside the will of the law, your morals, and your standing in your community (it’s hard to like someone who doesn’t share cake!)

In this week’s message from the letter of James, we unpack a series of difficult verses that warn us against accomplishing anything in a manner that falls outside of God’s will.
