Description

James 3:17 from The Bible says, "The Wisdom from Above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, unwavering, without hypocrisy." At first glance, you might think simplistically about this verse and move on. If so, you have sadly overlooked one of the richest and most in depth verses in the entire book of James. As the half brother of Jesus, James watched first hand what Wisdom from Above is and what this Wisdom does. This boutique book will give you, the reader, new definitions of Wisdom from the foundation of this one verse. Those definitions can be life changing as you commit to being "foolish enough" to trust Christ to speak, guide, and indwell your heart and mind to move toward Wisdom from Above.
