God Doesn't Play Favorites | Pastor Ben Dixon
24/03/2024 Duração: 52minIt’s near impossible to live in our world and not have some pre-disposed opinions that affect the way we see and treat others. There are many reasons for why this could be the case for us, but Jesus does not share our prejudice, nor does He treat people unfairly for any reason. In our passage today, James calls out the sin of favoritism which was prevalent then and still is today. As disciples of Jesus, we must have zero tolerance for the unfair treatment of others because the same grace that saved and sustains us is the same grace that God offers to everyone else. Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scripture: James 2:1-13, Ephesians 2:8-9, 1 Corinthians 1:26-31, Luke 10:25-29, Matthew 23:23-24 Series: The Book of James: Authentic Faith For more information visit www.BenDixon.org

The Signs of Pure Religion | Pastor Ben Dixon
10/03/2024 Duração: 46minThe word “religion” is used to define and describe so many things in our world today. Usually in Christian circles we talk about religion as a contrast to relationship with Jesus which makes it seem incompatible with the Christian life. However, the word religion is neutral and usually means “the outward practice or service to God.” In our final verses of chapter 1, James makes it quite clear that there is worthless religion that deceives people and pure religion that honors God and serves others. Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scripture: James 1:26-27, Psalm 34:13, Isaiah 1:13-17, 1 John 2:15-17 Series: The Book of James: Authentic Faith Northwest Church - www.nwcfoursquare.org On mission with Jesus to see the lost saved and disciples made.

The Danger of Passive Christianity | Pastor Ben Dixon
03/03/2024 Duração: 53minAs Christians, we know that our primary responsibility is to follow Jesus through faithful obedience to His Word. However, when life is hard, plans don’t work out, and prayers go unanswered it can be easy to shut down and stop responding to the truths that we hold dear. Additionally, we face an enemy who seeks to persuade us toward a passive and inactive faith that knows the Word but never responds. James was aware that the church of his day struggled with a passive faith and the same can be true for us today. As we dive into our passage we will observe a clear command, a serious warning, and a glorious promise which will enable us to be responsive Christians who hear God’s Word and do what it says.

A Church on Fire | Pastor Ben Dixon
25/02/2024 Duração: 37minA common critique of the modern American church is that we are more internally focused than externally focused. When and where this criticism is true of God’s people, we will find a church that is slowly dying spiritually because much our mission is to reach a broken, hurting, and dying world. We must be a church that is on fire for Jesus. That means we are bold, unashamed, passionate, and focused on reaching people in every way that we possibly can. How do we move from learning to living, from casual to passionate, and from passive to engaged? In today’s message, we will look at how the church went from fearful to fired up with the mission of Christ, and our hope is that God would do the very same in us today!

Dealing with Anger | Pastor Ben Dixon
11/02/2024 Duração: 52minWhen we get offended or when life is difficult, it’s not hard to get angry. We all deal with the issue of anger to one degree or another. So, the question is not, “Do we get angry?” but rather, “What should we do with the anger that we experience?” James speaks directly and practically about how to deal with anger which was important for them and is still relevant for us today.
