James—Faith Works

            James brings a work-centered perspective to the principles that we can trust God to provide for us and that we must work for the benefit of others in need.[3] If faith is real — if we truly trust God — then our faith will lead to all kinds of practical actions for the benefit of others in need. This perspective makes James an eminently practical book. We will find several places where James applies his teaching to the workplace, and many more where we can easily make the applications ourselves.
