James the Just was a very important person in the early Christian church. He was a leader who lived a long time ago, even before there were phones and computers!
He was born a long time ago in a place called Nazareth, which is in a country called Israel. His mom and dad were named Mary and Joseph and they were very important people in the Christian religion.
James was a very good person who helped others a lot. He followed the teachings of Jesus and tried to be a good example to others. He helped people who were poor or needed a friend.
People liked James a lot and thought he was very wise. They even called him "James the Just" because he was so fair and treated everyone with kindness.
Sadly, James was eventually killed because some people didn't like him and didn't agree with his teachings. But even though he died, people still remember him fondly and think of him as a great leader and role model in the Christian religion.
