Message: “Week 5: Real Faith in a Quarreling and Contentious Climate” from Kevin Harney

In this message, we will face the sad reality that fighting and contention have always been part of human relationships but it seems to be increasing in our generation with social media and 24-hour cable news. Real faith leads us to be people of grace, peace, and understanding (while we hold to our convictions and beliefs with no compromise). In this conflicted cultural moment, we can shine the light of Jesus by being models of loving people we don’t agree with seeking to love them like Jesus does.

From Series: "Real Faith"

Life isn’t neat and tidy, and neither are the challenges many of us face in our day to day lives. We don’t want a shallow faith that just tells people, “Keep your eye on the prize”. We are hungry for more clarity and something that stands up to the toughest of times and the winds and waves of culture. We are hungry for Real Faith! One of the Bible's best books to address this is the Book of James, which was written to inspire, encourage, challenge, and equip the early church with real life practices in the face of overwhelming persecution and cultural corruption. Just as it brought comfort, confidence, and courage to the 1st Century followers of Jesus then, it can still do the same for us today!
