Dion van Breda shares valuable lessons from the Book of James about faith and perseverance during trials.

In this week's sermon, Dion van Breda shares some valuable lessons from the Book of James. We may go through hard things in life, but if we hold firm to our faith in God, He will use those times to build our faith, our character, and our maturity. James 1: 2 - 5 (NIV)Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters,[ a ] whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. 4 Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.
