The New Testament books of James through Jude - the General Epistles - can be overlooked due to their brevity and location at the end of the canon. They contribute much, however, to our understanding of salvation and Christian living. In this accessible introduction for laypeople, pastors and study group leaders, Professor Crowe explains the content of these letters and their implications for the church today.
