{"product_id":"rec-james","title":"REC: James","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe book of James is both beloved for its practical wisdom and debated as to its relationship to Paul’s gospel. It offers concrete counsel on trials, poverty and riches, favoritism, social justice, the tongue, worldliness, boasting, planning, prayer, illness, and more. But in doing so, it exposes our inability to measure up to God’s standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDaniel Doriani, a pastor and scholar recognized for his works on biblical interpretation and application, resolves the tension between the wide-ranging practical commands of James and the centrality of faith in the Christian life. While James may not articulate the doctrine of atonement through the death and resurrection of Jesus, James does present Christ in his own way. Here Doriani shows us how. He thus helps us to apply the wisdom of James in a way that is rooted in grace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs part of the Reformed Expository Commentary series, this commentary is written for both pastors and lay teachers. Each volume in the series provides exposition that gives careful attention to the biblical text, is doctrinally Reformed, focuses on Christ through the lens of redemptive history, and applies the Bible to our contemporary setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTable of Contents:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction to James (1:1)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Trials of Life (1:2-12)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlessed Endurance (1:19-25)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHearing to Obey (1:19-25)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Tests of True Religion (1:26-2:7)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll or Nothing (2:8-13)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFaith That Works (2:14-19)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJustified by a Faith That Works (2:20-26)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWho Can Tame the Tongue?
