This is definitely one of the best group Bible studies I've ever used - and one of the very few where I'd be happy just using the questions as they are, rather than substantially rewriting it.
The questions get quickly to the meaning of the passage, clarifying what is difficult, and generally do
a good job of avoiding asking patronising 'what does it say' questions. They flow very naturally to application. That's easier with a book like James, of course, but they are still very good. James is hard-hitting, and it takes some skill to ask questions that don't just overwhelm.
