Bryan Clark challenges Christians to avoid the "sin of partiality"--which means focusing on a person's outer appearance instead of their innate value. "It's rooted to the very core of our culture," Bryan says, "but when it begins to bleed into the church, that's when it's a problem." As he explores James 2, he encourages us to love people the way Jesus does: free from external judgments, valuing people because God values people.

As we head into week two of our four-week study of the book of James.
We live in a culture that's obsessed with appearances--especially how people look and act or what they do and who they know. In this episode of Back to the Bible, Bryan Clark shares some life-giving wisdom from James: "God cares more about the condition of the heart."
(James 2)

We don't have to pretend or perform as we reach out to God. That's because He accepts us just as we are. In this episode of Back to the Bible, Bryan Clark reminds us of what the Church is supposed to be: a gathering of misfits and losers who have found hope, healing, and a new life through Jesus Christ.

Why do so many of us feel as if we need to hide our true selves from others--even from God? Why can't we take off our masks and just be real? Bryan Clark explores this dilemma in James, reminding us that God is going to redeem all creation back to Himself. So, living as a born-again Christian means losing our masks, experiencing the goodness of God, and ultimately discovering our true identities.

Every day we face a wide range of soul-robbing choices. Can we resist them and live in a way that pleases God or will we satisfy the flesh--and end up being dragged away by sin? As we continue our study on temptation, Bryan Clark takes us through James and explains that "everything that's good, perfect, and fulfilling comes from God." We, too, can be "overcomers" and find true fulfillment through Jesus.

Today, Bryan Clark challenges Christians to avoid the devastating consequences of sin. How? By understanding what's at the heart of temptation. "Every single one of us deep down have this desire to be our own God and to run our own lives," Bryan says. "And that's ultimately what temptation appeals to." As he explores James 1, he lays out a plan for resisting temptation.

Trials come in all shapes and sizes, and whether we like it or not, they're a fact of life. So, how should we react when they strike? Bryan Clark says the answer is found in the Book of James: "Consider it all joy." Those who trust Christ and place their identity in Him can find peace, strength, and joy in all circumstances.
