This Changes Everything: Lessons From James

by Ben Stuart

This Changes Everything: Lessons from James - Member Book is an 8 session study for young adults by Ben Stuart that unpacks the book of James. The world desperately needs Christians whose actions match their convictions. A young generation is rising up, and they need to see the power of the gospel working its way out into our everyday lives. Enter James, the half-brother of Jesus. Be warned, everything is on the table. James will call us to evaluate the way we deal with hardship, handle money, use our words, and plan our futures. But if we will let him in, James's letter has the potential for our outside to match our inside, our activity to match our God-given identity.

Join author Ben Stuart as he unfolds the teachings of James, who went from skeptic to believer. Just as James came face-to-face with the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, he wants the same for you whether you're wondering what being a Christian is all about or you've been following Christ for years. What James knew then still holds true today. When we encounter Jesus, He will change everything. (8 sessions)

Not the best book study ever, but did like how it was broken up into sections. Enjoyed the comparison of Paul and James on the subject of works.

Ben Stuart has always been someone that I've appreciated in his exegetical understanding & description of the Bible. I feel that he explains necessary concepts in detail consistently pointing towards the importance & eminence of Christ. I taught this book to middle school boys, & James couldn't have been a better choice for their circumstances.
