Meet James brother of Jesus.

A leader in the early church.

James brother of Jesus: a quiet historically appropriate setting for A leader in the early church, with simple understated contextual details; no invented dramatic event

Who was James brother of Jesus?

James is called the Lord's brother in Galatians and appears as a leader in the Jerusalem church. He is distinct from the two apostles named James. Christian traditions understand the family relationship in different ways.

In Acts 15, James spoke as the church discussed how to welcome Gentile believers. The account includes listening to others before offering a judgement.
