Welcome again everybody – we are in our third morning, in case you are a visitor, in a little New Testament book called James.
And I think today we come to a fascinating practical section. I want to remind you that James is seeking to equip his readers. Just as a Physiotherapist will work with somebody who is recovering or needing to make progress, and without berating the person will work carefully and slowly and practically and realistically, trying to help them make progress – James is working with Christians to try to help
them make progress.
Two weeks ago we saw that his helpfulness was in the area of facing trials – how to assess them – how to see that they may be God’s instrument for good.

Transcript:
Well dear friends, we’ve come to the second morning in the New Testament Letter of James. This is a letter which, we discovered last week, is written by Jesus’ half-brother – and he is obviously writing to help people to think well, and to draw good conclusions and not bad conclusions.
There is such a lot of stuff that is coming at us and it’s important to process things well. What do you do when something difficult comes at you? What do you do when something tempting comes at you? James wants us to think and process well.
