This small New Testament letter provides practical wisdom for living out our faith daily. Written by James, the brother of Jesus, it is filled with teachings and encouragements that address various aspects of Christian life, including social justice, materialism, the damage your tongue can do, conflict, making plans, favouritism, anger, praying, and what to do when we’re sick, among other things. As you read it, you quickly get the picture that God’s word is not just to be listened to but lived out. The Christian faith is a living faith that reflects Jesus, pursues holiness and is fuelled by God’s grace.
