Elizabeth George is a great Bible study author. She helps you dig in to see what the Scripture really says, and asks great questions to make you think about your own life. She also challenges you to live out and apply the Book of James to everyday life. The homework may seem a little repetitious in some of the questions, but it does help to emphasize a central truth or point. The homework does not take a long time which is great for women who are on the go, or who don't have a lot of time to devote to doing the lessons (it also helps that the Scripture portions are included in each lesson so you can make notes by the Scriptures or do the lessons without having to use your Bible). I would really recommend this study, and others by Elizabeth George.
