About This Book
A practical letter from Jesus' brother emphasizing that genuine faith produces good works—controlling the tongue, caring for the poor, and persevering in trials.
Quick Overview
Very practical! James says faith without works is dead. He covers speech, favoritism, and helping the poor. Good for daily application.
