TRIALS & TEMPTATIONS
As followers of Jesus the Church must be serious about reaching out to the neglected communities around us and around the world. There are many ways we can do that. We can do so by partnering with orphanages, communities locally and beyond. We can do so by supporting missionaries around the world who are reaching out to those who are marginalized and need the most hope.
To be doers of the word the Church must be intentional about continuing the mission work of Jesus locally and globally. Everyone can be involved through praying, giving and joining ministry opportunities readily available in your local communities.
We believe one of the ways we mature as a disciple of Christ is by caring, loving and reaching out to others in need. If you haven’t participated in an outreach, mission trips or giving opportunities at your local church, please consider doing so. So that our religion is the kind that the Father accepts we must be intentional about participating in the work of Jesus locally and beyond..

About this Plan
For James, Christians (that is, followers of his half-brother) should reflect the character of their God. And what we find in this letter is not works and more works as sometimes thought to be. On the contrary it is a letter infused by God’s character, with the intention of making God-shaped people living in the world.
