We turn our focus to the epistle of James as we reflect on the relationship between our faith and our action. The bulk of the letter centers on the connection between what the faithful believe and what they do, arguing that separation between the two fails to live into the greatest commandment, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” As we reflect on our own faith journey, scripture once again invites us to wrestle with a central question of the Reformed Tradition, the relationship between faith and works.
