In the early days of the church, James taught a message of joyful endurance, resisting temptation, and putting into practice the truth of the word the church had received. This little book offered reflections on trials, sin, and desire; on the challenges of controlling speech in the context of community and the damage such uncontrolled speech can bring about; and on the dangers of wealth and autonomy.

In the early days of the church, James taught a message of joyful endurance, resisting temptation, and putting into practice the truth of the word the church had received. This little book offered reflections on trials, sin, and desire; on the challenges of controlling speech in the context of community and the damage such uncontrolled speech can bring about; and on the dangers of wealth and autonomy. James holds up a picture of a community that seeks a life of purity, prayer, and patience. He confronts those who choose their own way over God's way and speaks words of judgment against those who oppress and steal from the poor. In contrast, this community of early Christians is one of wisdom, joy, and praise that seeks healing for those among them who suffer. At each step, James encourages these Christians to consider the two ways: the way of righteousness and the way of evil, and to choose the good. This ancient book offers wisdom for today as we too seek to live godly lives of prayer, purity, and care for one another in a world that seeks to pull us away from God.
