Grit spiritual perserverance

Grit: What is it and why would I want it?

Sunday :: Worship / Fellowship

Message for Sunday, February 25th

Grit is “the ability to persevere over a long time without giving up.” It is having stamina. It’s daily commitment, stick-to-itiveness–day in and day out over weeks, months, and years. James encourages us to consider the flip side of challenges. Challenges can produce perseverance!

Scripture: James 1:2-4

Key Verse

Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. 4 Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

James 1:2-4
