Narrado por: Sean Arviso

Have you found it difficult to study the Bible and live like Jesus? Have you been frustrated because you want to follow Christ, but you may not have the practical guidance how to do so? Do you want to get excited to read and study God’s word?

Whether you’re a new Christian, or a long-time follower of Christ, the In His Presence Devotional series will give you clear ways to walk with Jesus while equipping you to read and study the Bible effectively in a fresh way that is easy to understand.

God has given me the privilege of not only studying in Israel, Peru, and the United States to earn my B.A. in Biblical Studies with a specialization in Apologetics, but to also serve as a pastor where I have seen God change many lives.

The truth you will receive in this book will improve all areas of your life; spiritual, mental, physical, and even financial. If you want to experience excitement for God and His word today then I urge you to stop waiting. Don’t live another moment missing this opportunity. It’s time to get started by taking the 30-Day In His Presence Challenge.

Review - Depends on Reader

Arviso starts out the book with a warning that you should not continue reading if you are not saved. Kind of an odd statement for a book on the Epistle of James, which is often considered the most deeds oriented writing of the new testaments. At the end of the book you learn that Arviso named his son James, so his love and appreciation for James is certainly deep. Anyway, having already paid $15.95 to download, I continued to listen regardless of my beliefs. I am certainly not an expert on the scriptures. However, the book is beautifully written with both scholarly and faith oriented insights into the subject matter. It was enjoyable and insightful. The book is about 50% on James and about 50% of general apologetics. So, if you are a believer, the book will be a great mix of biblical education and faith. If your approach is more scholarly, you will tire of the apologetics and the lack of meaningful discussion on the more intriguing elements of the Epistle (deeds vs faith). So recommend for believers and not so much for non-believers (take Arviso’s advice and skip it).

Encouraging and Uplifting!

Author Aviso did his research when writing this book. Not only did he take me through the book of James, he provided me with additional scripture outside of James to give more breadth and depth of what the Epistle was conveying. His daily devotional structure made it a journey versus a quick read, and the community he has created to compliment this study provided needed accountability to grow in my relationship with Christ. I appreciated the daily prayers and action points - definitely fed my desire for spiritual growth.
I am looking forward to the next book!
