You could summarize the book of James in one word, "FAITH". Just what does it mean to have faith in God? Faith is having complete assurance that God will do what He says He will do. So in order to build our faith we must know God and His Word. It is through His Word that we learn of His trustworthiness and through His Spirit working in our lives that our confidence is built. So as we study the book of James, that will be our goal. To study His Word, verse by verse and line by line and know Him better and better and build our faith more and more.
