BCM Director Blake Grundy challenges us to examine if our faith consists of empty words or real, meaningful action. Using James 1:21-27, he outlines three essential steps. First, we must make an initial effort to remove sin from our lives while also filling our hearts with scripture. Second, we need a true commitment to living for Jesus, not just when others are watching but in private as well. True religion cares for the helpless and rejects worldly pollution. Finally, regular spiritual checkups are required. We cannot forget the things God reveals in us that need changing.
