Why Is Life So Hard? Loving Ourselves (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this week’s message, Jason teaches from James 2: 1–10, where believers are called to show no partiality, to remember their identity as God’s chosen people, and to love their neighbors as themselves. These truths challenge us to treat every person with the same love and respect, whether rich or poor. James 2: 1-4 "My brothers, show no partiality as you hold the faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory. For if a man wearing a gold ring and fine clothing comes into your assembly, and a
Why Is Life So Hard? Temptation Leads to Sin (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Week three of “Why Is Life So Hard?” takes us through James 1:12 –27, where we’re called to remain steadfast in Christ. James exposes how temptation grows into sin and death, urging us to stay watchful and live out God’s Word rather than merely hear it.

Mike Havran kicks off a new seven-week series through the book of James titled “Why Is Life So Hard?” Suffering is an unavoidable part of living in a broken world, and following Jesus doesn't mean we will escape trials, pain, or hardship. But God doesn't waste our suffering. He can use it to transform us, make us more like Jesus, and accomplish His purposes through it. Our faith must be more than simply knowing what is right or avoiding what is wrong—real faith produces action. Mike challenges u
What is the Church? The Beauty (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this wrap up of the “What Is the Church?” series Jason discusses how the Church is meant to bring beauty into the world. Jesus paints a picture of His people as salt and light in Matthew 5:13–16—preserving what is good and shining hope into darkness. When we live this out, the beauty of Christ becomes visible through us. Matthew 5:13-16 “You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out
