This week we do an overview of James' life. What we see is that James is concerned with "heart" issues, that is he wants us to have love in our heart for our fellow people. During the early part of his life we hear him say things that he doesn't understand God's kingdom, but by the end of his life he finally gets it, and shares the wisdom gained through experience.
