James

Examine the book of James in three parts: the test of faith, the characteristics of faith, and the triumph of faith. Faith without works cannot be called faith. Faith without works is dead, and a dead faith is worse than no faith at all. Faith must be there, but it must be more. It must inspire action. Throughout his epistle to Jewish believers, James integrates true faith and everyday practical experience by stressing that true faith must manifest itself in works of faith. 

Tests And Triumphs Of Faith: James

How should we respond to life’s trials? James’ letter delivers the answer: whatever comes, choose to live by faith. James digs into our struggles with temptations, unsound speech, conflicts, hardships and injustice. Trials are not meant to keep us weak and worried, but to make us strong. God-given faith includes power to transform our thoughts, priorities, decisions and relationships.

James: Verse by Verse With Bible Study Fellowship

No one wants to waste their time.  We only get one life to live and we want to make the most of it.  This extends to our walk with Christ.  No one who follows Christ wants to have a worthless faith.  The book of James provides wisdom for believers on how to have a vibrant faith that provides relief and comfort to our world. 

Worthless Christianity

This 5-Day plan is taken from my book "James Scripture Journey: A 40-Day Bible Study on the Book of James." 
James, the half-brother of Jesus, pulls no punches. He wants you to have a faith that grows, a faith that is grounded, and a faith lived out. 

NOTE: This plan is like looking at "scenes" from the "movie" that is James. To get the most out of this plan, I recommend reading or listening to the whole book (about 15 minutes) so you can get a better grasp on the whole movie as you study the scenes!

During this 14-day plan, we will be challenged and encouraged by the book of James’ practical and timely message.

Bible Explorer for the Young (James)

The Epistle of James is an intensely practical book for readers of every age. James' original audience had professed faith in Christ, but many were not living lives that reflected their beliefs. To address this disparity, James dealt with real-world issues that still speak to us today. This series looks at the background, structure and content of the book of James and explores the wisdom and practical instruction in James that remain relevant for modern readers.
