Description
Are you ready to grow stronger in your walk with Christ? Just like physical muscles need stretching to grow strong, your faith does too—and the book of James is the perfect workout.
In this 12-lesson Bible study, Juanita Purcell guides women through one of the most practical and spiritually challenging books in the New Testament. With warmth, honesty, and Biblical depth, she explores how real faith shows up in real life—especially when life gets hard.
You'll be challenged to:
- Embrace trials as tools for spiritual growth
- Persevere through temptation with God's wisdom
- Tame the tongue and speak life
- Live out your faith with integrity and action
- Submit to God in humility and resist worldly pull
- Pray with power and purpose
Each lesson includes Scripture study, personal reflection, and practical application—perfect for individual study or women's small groups. Whether you're a new believer or a seasoned follower of Christ, Stretch My Faith, Lord, will stretch your faith and strengthen your spiritual core.
Warning: This study is not for the faint of heart. James will confront your comfort zones, challenge your assumptions, and call you to a deeper, more authentic faith.
