A Theology of James: Wisdom for God’s People is unavailable, but you can change that!

In A Theology of James, Chris Morgan lays out a coherent biblical theology of the epistle of James, connecting the particulars of the book to the big picture of the Bible. With Chris Morgan’s helpful analysis, readers will find James’ message to be both grounded in theology—and livable.

wisdom.… It is the first thought that makes all other thoughts fall into place.… What the prologue makes clear is that the benefits of wisdom are available only to those who have already made a fundamental religious commitment.1 So wisdom at its core is theological. It is rightly understanding our place in the cosmos and relating to God accordingly. He is supreme and we are not. We must fear him and “acknowledge our creaturely dependence upon him.”2 This is basic to James’s understanding of wisdom.
