Reseña del editor:
James: a Path to Discipleship is an exciting, “hands on” approach to studying the Bible. During this twelve-week course, the student will be immersed in God’s Word and will commence a life-changing journey through one of the most challenging books of the Bible. Presented in a highly devotional format, this study is committed to the spiritual formation of everyone who has a passion for the kingdom of God. Upon completing James: a Path to Discipleship, the student will be able to: · Discover the rich truths of God contained in the Epistle of James. · Discern the key elements found in each and every verse of this great epistle. · Devote oneself to the many spiritual challenges that James speaks into our lives. · Disciple oneself and others to not only know God’s Word, but also to put God’s Word into practice. In short, James: a Path to Discipleship is dedicated to making disciples for the Lord Jesus Christ (Matt 28:19-20). It seeks, through the help of God and the power of the Holy Spirit, to enable each believer to clearly hear the Word of God and also to boldly do what the Word says (James 1:22).
