Description
Overview
Does your life reflect what you claim to believe? In this rigorous and practical study, we move beyond mere intellectual assent to explore the “pragmatic core” of the Epistle of James. This digital resource package provides a verse-by-verse examination of one of the most vital—and often misunderstood—passages in the New Testament: the relationship between faith and works.
This study is designed for pastors, small group leaders, and serious students of the Word who desire to move from “dead faith” to a living, perfected relationship with Jesus Christ.
