Two sisters & a cup of tea (Bible Study Podcast)

Felicity & Sarah discuss how the gospel impacts how we view suffering.
James kicks off his letter in a way that shows us he isn’t afraid to tackle the harsh realities of life. There is so much packed into these first few verses in James - we are simply beginning the conversation.
Questions to dig deeper, over a cup of tea:

How do you think about trials?
- How do these verses challenge you?
- How can they help you ‘consider’ trials a joy? Where in your life do you need to ask for God’s wisdom to see them this way?
- How do these verses enlarge your view of God’s steadfast character?
Tea and Biscuit Footnotes
Sarah was eating a home-made Easter egg chocolate cookie, and drinking a cup of hot water. Felicity was eating a chocolate finger and drinking Yorkshire Tea: Toast and Jam Brew but also had a backup cup of tea as well.

Felicity & Sarah begin to chat over the book of James over a cup of tea.
It only takes 20-30 minutes to read James, so why not read it a few times between now and next week’s episode. We’ve enjoyed listening to David Suchet read it via this app or you can buy an audio Bible here.

Questions to dig deeper, over a cup of tea:

How has it felt to read James?

Where do you see God’s grace coming through the letter?

How does double-mindedness feature?

What questions do you have as you read it?

We wholeheartedly recommend listening along with a friend, over this coming season as James encourages us to help one another to live out the grace that shapes all of life.

Tea and Biscuit Footnotes

Yorkshire tea in both cups, a milk chocolate digestive in Felicity’s hand and leftover Easter chocolate in Sarah’s.

Whether you’re parenting small children, commuting to work or heading out for a run, join us for our Bible based podcast as two sisters do a 20 minute bible study, on the go, going through a book of the Bible week by week.

James warns his brothers and sisters about the folly of unbelievers who seek to dictate their own futures, and use wealth for unjust gain.
Questions to dig into over a cup of tea:

• James is speaking about ‘worldy’ groups of people in these verses, it’s not the ‘brothers and sisters’ of the church family but he is telling them about these groups as a warning. What are the characteristics of the two groups? What are the issues?
• How does this help us to understand the world around us?
• How are we tempted towards this kind of friendliness with the world in how we think and behave?
• Any ways in which we might be unwittingly, or complacently, involved in injustices i.e. ethics of what we consume, whether people are oppressed in producing what we use?
• How do these verses push us back on the grace of chapter 4?

Tea and Biscuit Footnotes

A cup of hot apple & mango squash for Sarah, and a cup of Yorkshire Grey with a malted milk biscuit for Felicity.
