James: Practical Wisdom (Life Lessons With Max Lucado Series)

Do your Monday actions reflect your Sunday worship? How about your claims to faith? Is your life full of noticeable changes and actions? James, the half-brother of Jesus, wasn't impressed with talk. He knew that a life of faith was all about *actions* that revealed a difference in a person's life. For him, it was not that works *save* the Christian, but that they *mark* the Christian. In his letter, he boldly deals with practical issues of faith not bound by culture or place. He shows the importance of living a genuine life of faith. His message is bare-knuckled as he encourages, challenges, and confronts, offering practical words and admonitions to live out our faith.

The *Life Lessons with Max Lucado* series brings the Bible to life in twelve lessons filled with intriguing questions, inspirational stories, and poignant reflections to take you deeper into God's Word. Each lesson includes an opening reflection, background information, an excerpt of the text (from the *New International* and *New King James* versions), exploration questions, inspirational thoughts from Max, and a closing takeaway for further reflection. The *Life Lessons* series is ideal for use in both a small-group setting or for individual study.Read less
