First Christian Church - Pleasant Hill

The Book of James
Sunday Sermon Series beginning August 30th!
930am Morning Service (for the more vulnerable)
1130am Family Service (for families w/children & everyone)

There's a lot of wisdom and action in the five small chapters of James, found in the New Testament. Written by the human brother of Jesus Christ, James is a person who struggled with Jesus being the Son of God. I mean, wouldn't you? If your brother or sister or best friend came up to you and said they were God, even speaking with great authority and wisdom, as well as performing incredible miracles, wouldn't it be hard to see them as anything other than human? James saw his brother Jesus at the dinner table. Playing as a kid. Doing chores. In the bathroom. Come on - that's God?! And yet, eventually, the proof was in the pudding, and James followed Jesus as his Lord and Savior for the rest of James's life.

The book of James is an important writing - getting to the root of one of the biggest problems with the worldwide Church today: action. Christians tend to fill up with head knowledge of Christianity. But it's becoming increasingly rare, especially in the Western Church, to see that head knowledge put into action. And we all know there's a HUGE difference between book smarts and street smarts! James directs his readers to live into both!

With changing COVID mandates, FCCPH is currently holding all services in the shaded beauty of our Garden of Grace in the front courtyard of our facility, weather permitted. We also stream our messages live at 930am each Sunday on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/FirstChristianChurchPleasantHill

We believe the Holy Spirit is God’s Spirit which has come into us. We believe the Bible is His Word and is thus true and authoritative. We believe the Church is His family despite its shortcomings. We believe God has saved us by His grace. And we believe God wants us to both serve and enjoy Him until His Son returns for us on some future day.
