In this series, Craig Blomberg and Mariam Kamell Kovalishyn explore the book of James passage-by-passage. You'll gain insights into the background and meaning of the text and discover how the book's messages fit within its own historical context and within a broader biblical-theological context.

These lectures examine the biblical text of James in its original environment, with an emphasis on the three key themes of (1) trials and temptation, (2) wisdom and speech, particularly with a view to obedience, and (3) wealth and poverty.
