Shuffling Joy into Trials

James: Live and Love Wisely

Chad Hovind
January 4, 2026

The Book of James deals a deck of wisdom, guiding us to live with faith, love, and discernment through actionable teachings, inspired by Proverbs and the Sermon on the Mount.  Like a dealer laying out cards, James introduces God’s wisdom as a gift, always there during trials, when we need guidance, and when tempted to be selfish or petty.  Join Horizon for James: LIVE AND LOVE WISELY, a verse-by-verse study.
