A Working Faith

What does genuine faith look like when we leave church and step into the realities of everyday life? How does our Sunday worship shape the way we show up at work, at school, in our homes, and in our communities? In this message, Pastor Ruthie Seiders invites us to consider a powerful and challenging truth from the book of James: faith that does not move us to action is incomplete. A living, authentic faith is not something we simply believe—it is something we practice. Drawing from James 2, Pastor Ruthie explores what it means to live out a working faith—a faith that connects prayer, worship, and belief with tangible expressions of love, mercy, justice, and compassion in the places God has called us to serve each day. Using Scripture, real-life examples, and stories from Grace Chapel’s Faith and Work gathering, this message highlights how God is already at work through people across all ages, vocations, and life stages.
