Wisdom from Straw by Jim Tegelhutter
Wisdom from Straw is a lively, no-nonsense, deeply practical deep-dive into the book of James--written for believers who are tired of shallow spirituality and ready for a faith that can survive car lines, crisis seasons, temptation battles, and Tuesday afternoons. With trademark humor, Greek-and-Hebrew unpacking, Puritan quotes, modern illustrations, and a pastor's heart forged through decades of ministry, Jim Tegelhutter, Ph.D., turns Luther's infamous jab about the "strawy epistle" on its head and proves that straw is exactly what the Church needs. From joy in trials to wisdom that must be asked for passionately, from taming the tongue to confronting favoritism, from resisting temptation to rediscovering reverence for a holy God, this book turns James into a field guide for gritty, joyful, boots-on-the-ground Christianity. If you've ever wondered how to actually live what you believe--how to grow up in your faith, stand firm under pressure, speak life instead of poison, pursue holiness in a chaotic culture, and find the treasure hidden in everyday obedience--Wisdom from Straw will make you laugh, cry, repent, rejoice, and finally say, "This is the Christianity I've been longing for." It's theological carpentry: splinters, sweat, sanctification, and surprising joy--all woven into a book that proves God builds His strongest people from the simplest material.| SKU | Unavailable |
