James - Teen Bible Study Book

Are you living a faithful life?
 
We don’t work to be saved; we work because we are saved. But without faith, our works are empty service. And without works our faith is dead. This dynamic relationship is the heart of this study of the Book of James.
 
Faith keeps us humble, not proud; directs us to bless, not to curse; and causes us to show mercy, not judgment. Faith leads us to true religion that extends itself in favor toward others. Faith inspires us to preach the good news to every tribe, tongue, and nation. Faith motivates us to worship our God for all eternity. This is the essential message of James: Faith works.

MATT CHANDLER serves as the lead pastor of teaching at The Village Church, a multi-campus congregation based out of Flower Mound, Texas. He came to The Village in December 2002 and describes his tenure as a replanting effort to change the theological and philosophical culture of the congregation. Alongside his current role as lead pastor, Matt is involved in church-planting efforts both locally and internationally through The Village, as well as in various strategic partnerships. Matt is the author of Take Heart; To Live Is Christ, to Die Is Gain; Mingling of Souls; The Explicit Gospel Bible study (Lifeway, 2012); and The Apostles’ Creed Bible study (Lifeway, 2017).
