"Create Your Own Good Enough" is both informative and relative to many. We all have times when we don't feel good about where we are in life.

Only you know what is good enough for you. Just allow your inner being to guide you!

In 'O' Peniel, Behind the Fans', people use hand fans at church to cover up their indescretions. The preacher, himself, seems to always go out of his way to discover any hidden secrets about people around town. And he has no problem blatantly exposing these secrets directly to that person; while yet still letting others know he knows of those indiscretions in his unsympathetic sermons. He even unexpectedly preached about himself in one of his sermons. But yet, he's still so quick to point out other people's wrongdoings. This makes you wonder if he's unblemished, as well. One person, though, seems to have figured that out early on, but it's not Rhyah. Rhyah, the young girl portrayed as the book's witty narrator, demonstrates that life is full of mishaps and issues and that they are simply a part of life. Thus, we all make mistakes She, too, has created a problematic secret of her own. One, of which she has hid for several months. It's also one, which causes immense frustration and shame upon people. But, she makes a grand revision to her issue by directly confronting 'it'; allowing everyone to know that things like this may walk up on us, but they do not have to overtake our lives. Additionally, the book's theme is given from a (somewhat) biblical perspective that seems to enhance the value of it.

You could summarize the book of James in one word, "FAITH." Just what does it mean to have faith in God? Faith is having complete assurance that God will do what He says He will do. So in order to build our faith we must know God and His Word. It is through His Word that we learn of His trustworthiness and through His Spirit working in our lives that our confidence is built. So as we study the book of James, that will be our goal. To study His Word, verse by verse and line by line and know Him better and better and build our faith more and more.
