James Bible Study

Welcome to the GWS Bible Study! In this study we will be exploring the New Testament letter of James. Each study will be released as a weekly podcast episode so you can listen on your commute, or with your Bible and a notebook to follow along more closely. However you use this study, my hope is that it will be a blessing to you and that you will grow ever more into the image of Jesus Christ. (Rom. 8:29)
