Faith That Works

Why did Jesus influence the world more than anyone else in history? Because his message was not a theory or a philosophy; the faith he taught was perfectly demonstrated by the life he lived. In other words, Jesus taught a faith that actually works in real life. And to a world jaded by religious hypocrisy, this was incredibly refreshing. What does it mean to follow in his steps? James, the brother of Jesus, wrote a short letter that answers that question—and provides a gut-check for the reality of our faith.
