Last week we talked about how faith is a process - a life characterized by sustained spiritual growth. What does this look like on a more personal level? You say, "I hear what James is saying, but how do I actually do it?" I’m glad you asked - your already at step one! First, we need to become observant listeners. Then we become responsive followers. This turns our whole understanding of faith or religion around. Instead of doing what we do to try to become something.
We internalize what God says about us, and that becomes the source of both our thoughts and our actions.
