Let's Study James Book coverMen, join us at the Omelette Cafe at the Ford Plaza in Richmond Hill for a weekly study as we go over Dr. Sinclair B. Ferguson's book, Let's Study James. We'll begin this study on Tuesday, July 7th at 6:00 am for one hour, and continue each week through the 14 chapters. For questions about this study, contact Bobby Wise, bobbywise84@yahoo.com.

Throughout the centuries, the Letter of James has proved to be an excellent refresher course in what it means to live the Christian life. It is only a few pages long. It can be read out loud in twenty minutes. It is very direct and extremely practical. Several themes run through the Letter of James and make clear what his burden is. He writes about suffering and joy, riches and poverty, faith and works, the tongue and speech, and about wisdom and folly. In a word, he writes about the heart and life of the Christian believer. James’s bête noire is false and hollow piety; pious platitudes are anathema to him. Faith that does not issue in good works, a holy life, concern for the needy, and a disciplined use of the tongue, is for James no faith at all.

Author: Dr. Sinclair B. Ferguson is a Ligonier teaching fellow and distinguished visiting professor of systematic theology at Westminster Theological Seminary. He previously served as the senior minister of the First Presbyterian Church in Columbia, S.C., and he has written more than two dozen books.
