5 Weeks

True Religion

What does faith look like? How does faith change my life? How does my faith change the world around me for the better? This five-week series from the Letter of James answers these questions as it moves through James’s teachings on faith in action. This is practical theology for all believers, but especially younger and newer followers of Jesus. With one teaching from each of James’s five chapters, we’re encouraged to read through the whole letter and discover what true religion might look like.

Using This Series Guide

What is the Series Guide?

The Series Guide is a comprehensive resource designed to help you lead your congregation through this sermon series. It includes weekly sermon outlines, discussion questions, and key theological insights to support your teaching preparation.

Each guide has been thoughtfully crafted to provide you with both depth and flexibility as you prepare your messages.

This series includes 5 weeks of content.

What is the Series Guide Not?

The Series Guide is not a word-for-word sermon script. It's not meant to replace your own study and preparation, but rather to complement it with additional resources and structure.

It also doesn't include all media assets - those are available in the downloads section.

How Do I Use this Series Guide?

We recommend starting with the series overview to understand the big picture themes. Then, for each week, review the scripture passages, main points, and illustrations provided.

Use the discussion questions for small groups or to spark your own thinking. Feel free to adapt any content to fit your congregation's specific needs and context.
