New Testament studies with solid and accessible theology for those who want to go deeper.
The book of James calls us to wisdom. Paul’s letter to the Galatians compels us to a liberated life in the Spirit. Exploring the links between the time these words were written and our own times, Scot McKnight reveals the enduring relevance and importance of these two letters for our lives today.
James and Galatians both speak words of life to believers in the first century and in the twenty-first century:
- James offers us practical and relevant wisdom about the speech we use (especially considering modern means of communication), the trials we face, and the specific dangers of wealth.
- Galatians reminds us of the total sufficiency of Jesus in securing our salvation, and of the leadership of the Holy Spirit for living out our faith.
Ideal for personal reflection or group study, James and Galatians will help you see God in the biblical context so you can hear from God in your context.
