Pastor Somer Reed – “From Hearers to Doers Using Scripture ” – Verdugo Community Church October 6, 2024

In her sermon, “From Hearers to Does Using Scripture,” Pastor Somer Reed, from Marina Christian Church continues our study of the book of James by challenging us to put our faith to work, to be doers of the Word, and not just hearers. She looks to the examples given by James and incidents in her own life to illustrate what it means to truly live out Jesus’scommandment to love others as you love yourself. The temptations and controversies we see in our lives were present in the First Century church that James was writing to. Then as now, true religion is found not in passive acceptance of the Word, but in addressing the real needs of those around us who have been ignored.
