This week, we're diving into a question at the heart of our faith journey: Is faith enough, or must our actions bear witness to what we believe? In James 2:14-17, we encounter a powerful challenge: "faith without works is dead." This call to live out our faith is a cornerstone of the Christian walk, yet the balance between faith and works has sparked centuries of debate—even Martin Luther struggled with this tension! Maxie Dunnam takes a closer look at why both faith and action are essential, drawing on insights from James and theologians like Hans Küng to understand why the gospel is only complete when we embrace Jesus as both Savior and Lord. Are we embodying a faith that changes not just our lives but the world around us? This piece reflects on that question and offers a compelling reminder that our neighbors should be able to see our faith in how we live.
