Early on I have been taught many things that I have found not to be scriptural. I accepted Christ at an early age but was not subject to the learning and teachings that would produce spiritual growth until I got out of the military. I serve 8 years and my faith was not consistent. Though I have spent many years since, The epitle of James has taught me that there is more then just plain outward religion. I have taught out of James and it has blessed some, and I hope that it be a blessing to others.view less
