TIM
Good morning. I’m Tim Wise, Sanctuary Choir Director at Central.
What is it about our faith that makes us relevant to people around us?
In the book of James, we read about how our actions show our faith.
“Imagine a brother or sister who is naked and never has enough food to eat. What if one of you said, “Go in peace! Stay warm! Have a nice meal!” What good is it if you don’t actually give them what their body needs? In the same way, faith is dead when it doesn’t result in faithful activity.”
It’s good that you believe in God, but even evil believes in God. A person is declared righteous through faithful action and not through faith alone.
“As the lifeless body is dead, so faith without action is dead.”
Without action, our faith has no claim to fame to those around us. However, when we use our gifts to be the hands and feet of Jesus, then our faith is relevant.
