Here we see that James is not merely a “practical” letter written to Christians in general, but a penetrating analysis and treatment of an undiagnosed spiritual disease among believers who are experiencing significant difficulties.
James begins to prise the lid off the can of worms, exposing the disease beneath the symptoms.
Here teachers and speech are seen to be particularly important in the disease process, either for good or for ill.
The heart of the disease is exposed, and God’s gracious solution is displayed.
Believers are urged to swallow the medicine themselves, and to help one another swallow it.

We aim to keep afternoons clear during Convention so you can reflect and enjoy all the lake district has to offer. There is a concert each Wednesday evening and a few receptions for particular groups on site in the afternoon for those looking for something more.
There is also plenty of time in the afternoons to explore the beautiful surroundings of Keswick and the Lake District.

Enhancing your Workplace Witness. Ministry in everyday work is much more than verbal witness but for many it’s the area they feel least confident in. The key is to build trusting relationships. And critical that is the ability to make the most of everyday conversations that are ‘full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone’ (Colossians 4:6). Come explore some simple ways to do that and share challenges and ideas with others in your sector.

The theme for the Convention this year is Transformed to help us consider the ways that we have been, will be and are being Transformed by Christ and his Spirit. In 19-24s, we’ll particularly focus on the ways that we are being made more like Christ, through the transforming work of the Spirit.
In these sessions we’ll be focussing on the Fruit of the Spirit (as listed in Galatians 5), and thinking through what it looks like to cultivate and display that fruit in our lives.
Monday – Introduction to the Fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5)
We’ll begin the week with an introduction to the idea of the fruit of the Spirit, and in particular, the fact that it is fruit and not ‘fruits’! Spiritual fruit and spiritual gifts are not the same – we shouldn’t expect that one of us will have love, and another gentleness, and so on, but rather, that each of us has been given all of the fruit, as each of us has received the Spirit.
Tuesday – Love, Joy and Peace
Working through what Paul meant by the words ‘love’, ‘joy’ and ‘peace’, and considering how they ought to be seen and lived out in our work/studies, friendships and family, romantic relationships, church life, and evangelism.
Wednesday – Keswick Lecture (Main Tent)
We will join the Keswick Lecture in the Main Tent.
Thursday – Patience, Kindness, Goodness
Working through what Paul meant by the words ‘patience’, ‘kindness’ and ‘goodness’, and considering how they ought to be seen and lived out in our work/studies, friendships and family, romantic relationships, church life, and evangelism.
Friday – Faithfulness, Gentleness, Self-Control
Working through what Paul meant by the words ‘faithfulness’, ‘gentleness’ and ‘self-control’, and considering how they ought to be seen and lived out in our work/studies, friendships and family, romantic relationships, church life, and evangelism.
Whether you’ve come to Keswick as part of a group, or you’re here on your own, we’d love to help you create community this week! Socials will take place each weekday afternoon – check the Instagram @keswick_19-24s for more info!
