New Discussion: A Study on the book of James
True faith produces fruit. A faith without action and without life change is ultimately a dead faith. The book of James speaks to the realities of a living faith in Jesus—the kind of roll-up-your-sleeves and get-your-hands-dirty discipleship that is borne out of an authentic relationship with the risen Lord. James writes to believers who know suffering, who've faced trials, and who ultimately desire a deep relationship with God.
Francis Chan unpacks the dense truth contained in the book of James in front of the iconic backdrop of San Francisco, the city where he lives and ministers. Through 12 sessions, Francis works through James verse-by-verse, challenging followers of Christ to move beyond a private, intellectual knowledge of God and His Word, to a vibrant faith that impacts every square inch of life.
WHAT IS A LIFE GROUP?
Life Groups are casual, conversational groups. Life Groups involve a Bible Study component but do not operate like a bible study. In a Life Group you will have the opportunity to get to know other people in your group (a.k.a. hanging out), to participate in discussion, conversation, and prayer. The leaders in our Life Groups facilitate discussion rather than teach. Each Life Group will follow the same study but the Life Group studies will be different than the other ministries. Whether you are husband and wife, single, young adult, or young at heart, anyone in our church can join a Life Group.
