Was the book of James written by one of the twelve disciples or the brother of Jesus? Are there any references to James outside the world of the New Testament? Many scholars have concluded that his epistle was likely written in the early to mid-forties of the first century. And since James so frequently quotes and alludes to the sayings of Jesus throughout his epistle, this provides strong evidence that both he and his readers were saturated in Jesus’s teaching from a very early date. On this episode, Shane Rosenthal begins a two-part discussion of the book of James with Bob Hiller, author of Finding Christ in the Straw, a Forty Day Devotion on the Book of James. __________ To receive Bob Hiller’s book, Christ in the Straw, for a gift of any size just head over to whitehorseinn.org/hiller. __________ For the month of October, become a partner and receive the classic book, The Pearl of Christian Comfort, as a special thank you.
