Oh this is such perfect timing! We'll be memorizing the ENTIRE book of James for homeschool next year, and I was hoping to use these videos to accompany the lessons!

Great as always! But agree with others that the music is a bit loud. I think a previous video was the same. I'm listening on my phone with wired earphones, for example. But thank you for doing manual captions!

Good job on the video, very powerful and emotional. I also love the diversity you reflect in your videos! This is an interesting concept - showing favor to the poor and destitute instead of the rich. I see some churches and denominations doing this, while others focus on clothes, the American dream, one-upping your neighbor, and idolizing the rich. This is a great reminder that the Bible says Jesus came for all people, and chose the casted out and judged to demonstrate his love. If he came today, I have a feeling he would be the complete opposite of what main / Western Christianity thinks he is, and they would persecute him all over again.

The music is drowning out the message.
