James - Philip Greenslade


Philip Greenslade looks at the epistle of James, written to scattered groups of Christians, surrounded by competing voices. How should Christians speak and act in such volatile times so as to be true disciples of Jesus, Philip asks. It is prophetic wisdom for tense and dangerous times. In our equally highly-charged world today, let's learn again from James the 'wisdom from above' which, alone, makes for peace and which builds communities of faith and patient endurance prepared to pay the price of living by God's kingdom rule.
