James: The Man And His Book
Individual TopicsSteve Gregg
In "James: The Man and His Book", Steve Gregg introduces the figure of James, the leader of the Christian church in Jerusalem and the brother of Jesus. Although not one of the twelve apostles, James' leadership and teachings helped shape Christian theology and practice. He wrote one of the earliest books in the Bible, drawing heavily on Jesus' teachings, and emphasized the importance of both faith and good works in salvation, which is a point on which he differed from the Apostle Paul.
