In describing the book of James, the first word that comes to mind is “practical”. James had a way of taking the lessons he learned at the feet of the Master, and bringing them down to a simple instruction for believers across the centuries. This book teaches the fulfillment of our faith.

Walk into any library, or Christian bookstore, look through the catalogs of your denominations publishing house, or type “James” into any internet search engine and you will find dozens of books on James. Fulfilling Faith: A Journey Through James doesn’t pretend to be a scholarly work. It is not some deep theological tome. Instead, it is one man’s observations about the practicality of fulfilling our faith by following the teachings of Christ.

The purpose of the book Fulfilling Faith is to have a conversation with the reader, not to be a textbook. You won’t find copious amounts of references to dusty old texts that few read anymore (though they absolutely serve a purpose), but you will hopefully find some insight into how we can take the words of James and apply them to our lives.
