James 1:12-15 NIV 12 Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial  because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him. 13 When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; 14 but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. 15 Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.   For Sermon Notes Visit: https://sermons.church/archived?church&sermonid=36171&cred_referrer_form_id=25   ANNOUNCEMENT LINKS:   Download The Church Center App: https://www.kchanford.com/koinonia-app/   First Time Visitor: Text ‘Welcome’ to 559-500-4830   Need Prayer, Contact Us At: https://www.kchanford.com/   Tithes and Offerings: https://www.kchanford.com/give Volunteer: http://www.kchanford.com/volunteer The post Trials, Tests, and Temptations | Koinonia Church | Pastor Tim Howard appeared first on Koinonia Church.
