James - Part 2

This week, we turn to Chapter 2 of James, where he confronts one of the most prevalent issues within the church and society at large: partiality. James, through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, makes it clear that our faith must not only be active but also impartial. He addresses how easily we can fall into favoritism and how such attitudes are incompatible with the heart of God and the gospel of Jesus Christ.

As we unpack this chapter, we will see how James’ words challenge us to confront our biases, love our neighbors as ourselves, and live out a faith that reflects God’s mercy, justice, and grace. This isn’t just about avoiding favoritism—it’s about embodying the inclusive love of Christ in everything we do.
