THE BOOK OF JAMES BIBLE STUDY

Here at Compass, we hope you are doing well and leaning into God during these trying times we are facing. During this time, our NEW NORMAL is all about using technology to continue to stay connected with each other and to continue to help us grow in our walk with the Lord. The book of James is a very powerful and practical book offering us great guidance in how to live out our lives as we follow Christ.

The Right Now Media book study we are encouraging you to participate is well designed and the videos are led by the very charismatic and passionate, Francis Chan. There are 3 options to participating in this study.

---

OPTION 1

On Your Own

The first option, is to simply go to Right Now Media (if you are not registered yet, click here: Right Now Sign Up to have access to this great resource) and watch each video. You could do this as a daily or a weekly devotional. Read the corresponding chapter and verses and watch the video. You will find this to be a great learning.

OPTION 2

In Your Home

The second option takes it a little further. Go to Right Now Media, watch the video, read the corresponding scripture and then download the leader/participants guide. These guides have a ton of great discussion questions and more information to read and process, allowing to go much deeper in the study. You could do this on your own, with a friend or your spouse, or your family. Simply use the leader guide to help you facilitate the discussion. You do not have to be a preacher, a teacher or some kind of amazing leader to do this. Just be willing and available and enjoy the discussion.

OPTION 3

A Virtual Life Group

The last option is a little more involved. It is basically taking option 2 and using some kind of conferencing technology like Google Hangouts or Zoom to facilitate your bible study. If you are already in a Life Group, your leader might be willing to facilitate this. If you are not in a group, we encourage you to invite some people and give it a try. Zoom is pretty awesome, for it would allow you to show the video from your laptop to everyone who is participating. You could all watch it together, and then use the leader’s guide to help facilitate the discussion. Be bold and step up – you can do it.
