{"product_id":"9781789742176","title":"The Message of James : The Tests Of Faith","description":"\u003cp\u003eAs a good communicator, James addressed his readers directly and pointedly, with vivid images from ordinary life and attention-gripping statements.    This rich exposition brings James' letter to life for today's reader. Alec Motyer is himself gripped by James' energy and concern for practical Christianity. The letter shows how a genuine faith is a tested faith; how encounter with difficulties is an essential part of the growth to Christian maturity. This book powerfully brings out James' memorable themes - the link between enduring trials and maturity; the question of perfection; the good gifts of God; faith, works and Christian concern in a world of human need; the implications of careless and evil words; the meaning of war; the church and healing; confession of sin; and the need for active purity of life.    For James, genuine Christianity is practical. It is a tested faith. In this admirable exposition, Alec Motyer captures James' forthright and powerful message for today.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rye Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41186440282264,"sku":"9781789742176","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0064\/1368\/0730\/products\/9781789742176.jpg?v=1635029661","url":"https:\/\/ryebooks.co.uk\/products\/9781789742176","provider":"Rye Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
