Proving Grounds: The Forging of a Complete Christian - Hardcover

by Joshua Kelley (Author), Marianne Kelley (Editor)

James 1 tells us what is going to take place in our life in order to forge us into the Christians that we need to be. God has told us clearly in this chapter about the proving grounds (trials of life) that he would take us through in order to make us into the perfect (complete) Christian. Understanding this chapter helps us understand the purpose of the trials, so that we might be able to obtain the lessons we are supposed to learn. These lessons will forge us and help us prove ourselves so that we might have confidence in our faith and our walk with the Lord. Passing through the trials of life makes us ready to serve God in every capacity He has for us.
