In this episode Rabbi Joe Charnes and Kerry dive deep on the first 8 verses of James. They discuss the relationship of trials and being built up so that we can become complete, or wholehearted. They look at the meanings of the words used in these four verses and how we can become more godly through these trials. They then wrestle with the heavy questions of whether or not you can truly find joy in the worst kind of evil in your life, and whether any of this can truly help you to become perfect in this life. They ask if James is right that joy can come from experiencing evil.
