## Resource

Council of Catholic Men Catechism and Bible Study 2026 March 4 In this episode, we open with prayer and begin our study of the Catholic Epistle of Saint James, focusing on Chapter 1. We explore how trials refine faith into patience, why God is the author of all good and not of temptation, and the call to be doers of the word—bridling the tongue, serving the vulnerable, and remaining unspotted by the world. We connect James’s teachings to Scripture across the Old and New Testaments (Romans, the Gospels, Isaiah, 1 Peter, Job, Proverbs), highlighting Christ’s promises about prayer offered in faith and the fleeting nature of earthly riches. We also underscore the Catholic teaching that faith and works belong together, with James challenging the notion of justification by faith alone. We then turn to the Catechism through St. Peter Canisius’s “Large Catechism,” reflecting on the Second Article of the Creed: Jesus Christ as true God and true man, High Priest, King of Kings, and Lord of Lords, in whom the fullness of the Godhead dwells. Drawing on John, Hebrews, Colossians, Philippians, Revelation, and more, we contemplate Christ’s primacy, redemption of sinners, and ultimate subjugation of all powers. Finally, we honor the approaching feast of Saints Perpetua and Felicity, recounting their steadfast witness and martyrdom at Carthage, and close in prayer, asking Our Lady’s intercession.
