Pastor Gail Whitcome Linstrom – “A Disciple’s Life Is the Testimony of Their Faith” – Verdugo Community Church March 10, 2024

In her sermon, “A Disciple’s Life Is the Testimony of Their Faith,” Pastor Gail looks at the teaching of James, the probable half brother of Jesus and the leader of the early Jerusalem church, to see how we show that we are Christians. James makes the point that just saying we believe, or even quoting Scripture, is not what Jesus expects from his followers. It is our actions toward those those we live with and encounter, especially those who are oppressed and rejected by society ,that demonstrate our faith. Only then can we claim that we are Christians, empowered to follow God’s direction in our lives and show his love to others.
