When we read James and see the words, “count it all joy” as a command to us in the midst of suffering, we may balk. We may get offended at the idea.  We may wonder how can we possibly consider the difficulties, the suffering, and the trials of our lives as something joyful.

But those are the words that God, through his servant James, speaks to us.  Join with Pastor Jonathan Evans as we consider how we can be changed through our trials, and how we can, like James, count it all joy.
