It is not a question of whether you will face trials. It is a matter of when. It could be that even today you are discouraged as you struggle uphill, with more mountain ahead of you than behind, wondering when things will get easier.

Take heart. Working through James 1:2-18, John MacArthur shows what God is doing in trials and how a Christian can benefit from them rather than merely survive them. A study guide with questions for reflection and group discussion, built from the sermon series rather than written separately.
