We will be studying the book of James. And you are free to use any commentary or book that you choose. Or even that fancy Bible with all the footnotes. Different perspectives and views will make this study richer and more interesting. A single book study will seem like a snail’s course after our speed read through the Old Testament.
Below you will find a study guide so you can follow along in the series. If you would like a book, I am suggesting Warren Wiersbe’s Be Mature.
If you would like to order the book from Amazon, they have new ones for $3 and used ones for .01 + 3.99 shipping.
Here’s the link:

Or you can pick up a copy at Lifeway. Don’t worry about having a book for this Sunday. It will be the overview and introduction. To get ready for the study, I suggest that we read the whole book of James (all 5 pages of it) before class.
