Managing Emotions
Our emotions are a gift from God. Expressed in a proper manner, emotions make life beautiful, rich, full, eliminate monotony and contribute much to both the enjoyment and effectiveness of living. Negative emotions can also be responsible for some of the greatest tragedies in life. Whether our lives are meaningful or miserable may be directly related to the health of our emotions.

Managing Contentment
In our expository sermon series taken from the book of James, one would think that considering the hopelessness of the situation, to "be outraged" or to "give up in despair" would be the next normal response. However, both giving in to the world and attacking the world are wrong. In today's message James spends the next six verses explaining to us how to manage contentment in a complex world.

Managing Priorities
Money has a dehumanizing function of measuring value, and it therefore leads people to pursue the goal of having instead of being. Jesus reveals money as power. Power also has great spiritual value, so money and wealth can be used for great good or for evil. This is one of the most "in your face" scriptures in the New Testament about the consequences of wrong priorities.

Managing the Pace of Life
This section of scripture begins with a short blunt expression, "now listen" to grab our attention. There may be no area in our lives that God has greater interest in, than in how we manage the pace of our lives.

Where is God When I am a Hypocrite?
Where is God when I am a hypocrite? You may attend weekly worship at Maple City, enjoy the arts and expression of music, pray and do acts of service but secretly find yourself to be an actor (hypocrite) when it comes to walking in true Christ centered, God honoring obedience to Jesus Christ. You may have others fooled but you can't deny what you see in the mirror. Am I being hypocritical? Being truthful with ourselves about our lives. Is there a gap between what we believe and what we are doing?
