Those who began the “5x5x5 New Testament Bible Reading Plan” by Navigators in January will begin reading the book of James on about March 31.

James is believed to be written by the half-brother of Jesus who became a believer after Jesus was raised from the dead. This book is rich in understanding the role of a Christian. It is especially strong in encouraging Christians to put their faith into action. Only five chapters long, there is much to be gleaned from this short book.
