Maybe you have been told that you’re one of the most dedicated players on the team. Or maybe that is what you want to be. When it comes to your dedication to God’s team—the one that matters most—what kind of player would Jesus say you are? Just as an athlete is recruited to play a sport, Jesus recruits you to play in the spiritual game of life. Standards that make a good athlete include strength, confidence, and hard work. What about God’s standards? We can use God’s Word to evaluate the way we choose to live. Every effective team works toward a common goal. The purpose of this Bible study and devotional is to help encourage, inspire, and build committed Christian athletes who desire to consistently follow Christ’s game plan. No more “game-day-only” athletes. Playing on God’s team is about being an everyday follower of Jesus, on and off the field, in and out of season! 

Just as God first breathed the spirit of life into man in Eden, so we rely on Him to sustain us still. We survive by His power, through His word, and for His glory. To believe the Gospel is to live; to live is to obey. This is the freedom for which Jesus set us free.

Examine the book of James in three parts: the test of faith, the characteristics of faith, and the triumph of faith. Faith without works cannot be called faith. Faith without works is dead, and a dead faith is worse than no faith at all. Faith must be there, but it must be more. It must inspire action. Throughout his epistle to Jewish believers, James integrates true faith and everyday practical experience by stressing that true faith must manifest itself in works of faith. 

James, the half-brother of Jesus writes in his capacity as a pastor to encourage and exhort his people dispersed in the face of difficulties. The primary theme of the letter is on living out one’s faith, being a doer and not just a hearer of the word. Though our context may be different, every single lesson still applies today.

Many believers are in bondage, enslaved by all kinds of struggles, addictions, oppression, sin.
