Title: Faith and works
Speaker: Scott Capon
Date: 14th January 2026
Location: Adelaide, Australia

In this episode, the focus lands squarely on James 2, unpacking one of the most misunderstood passages in the New Testament. Through the examples of Abraham offering Isaac and Rahab sheltering the spies, the message is clear: genuine faith is always backed by action. It is not about earning salvation through good deeds, but about the natural evidence of a living, active conviction.

The episode challenges each person to identify their own "Isaac" — the thing held most precious — and ask whether they are truly backing their faith with daily, practical obedience. From praying for others to encouraging those doing the Lord's work, every member of the body of Christ has a role to play.

Whether you are new to faith or revisiting a familiar passage, this episode delivers a direct, grounded reminder that belief and behaviour are inseparable.

3 Key Takeaways
Faith is not passive. James uses Abraham and Rahab as two powerful examples that genuine faith is always demonstrated through real, visible action.
What is your Isaac? Identify the thing you hold most precious and ask whether you are prepared to offer it up in obedience, trusting God has a better plan.
Everyone can contribute. Regardless of capacity or circumstance, every person can pray, encourage, and serve the body of Christ in meaningful ways.
