James is written by James, the brother of Jesus, who became one of the leaders of the church in Jerusalem. It is dated in AD 45-47. The book of James reads similarly to the Old Testament book of Proverbs, consistently focusing on practical actions in the life of faith. James continually calls for obedience to the law of God, showing us that obedience to God's instructions is an indication of living faith worked out in our lives. James brings the “by works” notions of the Old Testament and the “by faith” notions of the New Testament together to show that faith and works are intrinsically related in both covenants.

This letter instructs and challenges readers to seek godly wisdom. It counsels readers to avoid internal conflicts within the Church and to express faith through good works. James encourages believers to persevere through trials, reminding us that God is faithful to mature His people in the midst of suffering. Although James is a letter, it reads like a sermon on wisdom offering comfort and hope, encouraging faithful obedience to God, and providing spiritual instruction and encouragement toward unity and community in the life of the church.
