Synopsis

Understanding true faith can help you unlock your true potential as a follower of Jesus. True faith, however, may just be one of the most misunderstood concepts in our culture. We speak of having faith or being a person of faith, but in the biblical context, faith is as much a verb as it is a noun. Faith is something we do, how we walk and live. Indeed, there is a very practical element to faith, and the letter written by Jesus’ brother, James provides one of the most practical portraits of what real, everyday faith looks like. At times, the book of James will sound like it is contradicting the writings of Paul. At other times, the book of James feels like it is promoting a works-based salvation. However, when we truly dig deep into this letter, we can discover some incredibly helpful principles to make the faith we proclaim a faith that we truly live. James gives us a faith that is more than just belief. It is a faith beyond belief. Faith Beyond Belief digs into this book and pulls out nine such principles and shows you how to apply them to your Christian walk.
