Nancy Guthrie introduces the Book of James by explaining who James was, where he came from, and his importance to the early church.

Along with his other brothers and sisters, James started out as an unbeliever—though he was a half-sibling of Jesus—until Christ’s resurrection. Guthrie takes us through verses from the Gospels, the Book of Acts, and the historical writings to show James’s journey as the leader of the church in Jerusalem, a pastor, a peacemaker, a doer of the Word, and a man who remained steadfast under trial. In all this, we learn the significance of why James refers to himself as “a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ.”

We need one another. Yet we don’t always know how to develop deep relationships to help us grow in the Christian life. Younger believers benefit from the guidance and wisdom of more mature saints as their faith deepens. But too often, potential mentors lack clarity and training on how to engage in discipling those they can influence.

Whether you’re longing to find a spiritual mentor or hoping to serve as a guide for someone else, we have a FREE resource to encourage and equip you. In Growing Together: Taking Mentoring Beyond Small Talk and Prayer Requests, Melissa Kruger, TGC’s vice president of discipleship programming, offers encouraging lessons to guide conversations that promote spiritual growth in both the mentee and mentor.
