James (ESV Edition)

Faith That Works

About this book

The epistle of James is one of the most practical books in the New Testament. Focused on what the Christian life looks like in practice, this short letter highlights a crucial truth about genuine faith: it always leads to good works. In this redesigned volume in the popular Preaching the Word commentary series, Kent Hughes walks readers through James's important teaching about what it means to follow Jesus, exploring the call to persevere through suffering, the relationship between faith and works, and the importance of taming the tongue. Accessible yet robust, this commentary will help pastors, Bible teachers, and small group leaders understand and communicate the message of the book of James with insight and clarity.

Part of the Preaching the Word series.
