James—the brother of Jesus—who was this man? What evidence do we have that this “brother of our Lord” even existed? David Kitz digs deep into the biblical texts, archaeology, famil y dynamics, and church history. What emerges from his research is a portrait of a decisive, pivotal leader who embodied the will and character of Jesus Christ. But how did James—James the unbeliever—transform to become a leader who changed the course of world history? In these pages you will uncover the answer and rediscover for yourself the life-changing power of the gospel.
