The Book of James:

Guidelines for a Happy Christian Life

TODAY: Book of James, Introduction

On Wednesday, February 14th we will begin the 13-week study of "James: Guidelines for a Happy Christian Life.”

The apostle James, the oldest half-brother of Jesus, was a key leader in the Jerusalem church. During the early days of the young church, the Jewish believers had been scattered by persecution. Out of compassion, James wrote this epistle to confront them and motivate them to test the quality and consistency of their faith.
