Overwhelmed by trials? Wondering whether you've done enough to really be saved? Got issues with anger?
There is an answer.
These are all big questions that many if not all Christians face at some time or another, but the encouraging thing is that this is nothing new and we find them all addressed in the Bible, especially the letter of James.
Though Martin Luther the Reformer thought it was a letter of straw it actually it turns out to be a letter of steel, and digging into it you discover this is more than some New Testament form of Proverbs but an amazing letter that covers a whole range of issues as James challenges the believers of the day to get off the back foot and onto the front foot in their Christian life and witness.
As such it covers a wide range of material regarding life and relationships, and what it means to be the people of God wherever we live and at whatever time in human history we find ourselves.
This is a radical letter.
It digs.
It gets under the skin.
It calls us up and pushes us forward.

For some time I've been working on and off on a devotional overview of James called Living the Saved Life. It's not designed to be a full in depth study of James, but seeks rather to draw out the message of James and it's challenges to us today. It's now available as an e-book on Amazon.
If you would like to purchase the study you can find it on Amazon UK at: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00EFD57XI
For Amazon USA please go to: http://www.amazon.com/Living-the-Saved-Life-ebook
It’s also available internationally, please go to the various Amazon international sites.
If you enjoy it, please would you indicate on Amazon’s site with a like, stars, or even do a review.
Many thanks.
