Let me introduce you to a man of both mystery and wisdom. Mystery in that no one is absolutely sure who James was and wisdom because there are so many parallels between his writing and the Sermon on the Mount of Jesus and the Proverbs of David.
This study is to discover one of the basic truths of faith and our response to that faith. The Book of James provides practical guidance for Christian living, emphasizing wisdom from God’s Word, fruitful living amidst hardships, and obedience to Christ’s teachings.
