Read the introduction and all of James in the Life Application Study Bible. As you are reading through James, identify a passage of approximately 4-9 verses that you would like to study further. You may find the notes at the bottom of each page helpful, but you are not required to read them.
Review ch. 52 in Jesus is Lord. (You already read this for Workshop 4, but you may find it helpful to review the material on James).
Write a 400-500 word essay that explains and applies your chosen passage from James:
Start with a brief introductory paragraph that identifies the specific verses you chose to focus on and why you chose those verses.
Study the passage closely and see how it fits into that chapter of scripture. Write approximately 200 words that explain the meaning that your selected verses had for the original author and audience. You should describe the contents of the passage and any points that clarify what it would have meant in its original setting. In the course of your explanation, you must make at least one citation from Jesus is Lord or from the introductory matter or the study notes at the bottom of the page as found in the Life Application Study Bible.
Then, apply the passage to a contemporary personal or social situation. Write approximately 200 words that make clear links between the original meaning of the passage and the contemporary issue. You may apply the passage to your own spiritual life, family, or job. You can also apply it to larger cultural and societal issues. To complete the application, state clearly what action or stance you would take on your chosen situation or issue based on the contents of the biblical passage.
Be sure that you write clearly and in accordance with all APA guidelines. You only need to cite biblical passages with the name of the book then chapter and verse (e.g. Luke 6:32). You do not need a full bibliographic citation for biblical references.
