Joyfully Endure Trials
Speaker: Jerry Witham Series: Table Talk Topic: Endurance Passage: James 1:1–12
The table. It’s the place where life happens. It’s where the issues of life are talked about. From family, to friends over. From what is coming up on the schedule, to how today went. From what was spent, to what needs to be spent. From the joys, to the struggles. From the laughs, to the tears. It happens around the table. From the lessons shared, to the jokes told. From the responsibilities that need to be done, to plans that need to be made. From food shared, to games played. From the homework that needs to be finished, to the friend at school that needs to be encouraged. From the quiet, to the crazy. It happens at the table. From the mealtime prayer, to the bible verse shared. From the word of correction, to the wisdom given. From the smile, to the hand held. From the faith instilled, to the direction given. It happens around the table. The table is where life happens. So, today we launch into table talk, a series on the book of James that deals with real life and Christianity at street level. As we began today we start with the troubles of life, their purpose and how we are to face them when they came. So, let’s grab a seat at the table and talk.
