Excerpt from A Sermon Commemorative of the Reverend James Brainard Goodrich: Preached in S. James's Church, Burkehaven, N. H., On Sunday, July 6, 1913 Ere is a Text from a letter of S. James, and I want to begin with saying a very few words about the writer of my Text. The name of S. James has come, I am sure, to be a very dear name to those of us who have attended Services in this Church, summer after summer. But there are three S. Jameses who appear before us in the New Testament, and while all three have some thing about them that is interesting and memorable, I hold that the one who wrote the letter should be of all of them the best remembered and the best loved, our own S. James especially. He was not one of the original Apostles, if I read his story aright. He is described as the Lord's brother, which means that he was one of that little group of near kinsmen (probably cousins) of our Lord, of whom S. John tells us that even Hisbrethren did not believe on Him. This kinsman who could not believe that one of his own family connection was the promised Messiah - I venture to guess that it was humility, and not meanness, that made it so hard for him to see that something near to him was something great - seems probably to be also the James to whom our Lord appeared after His resurrection, as noted by' S. Paul. After that He was seen of James, then of all the Apostles (i Cor. Xv, When S. Paul wrote those words, our James had become an Apostle, and was the most conspicuous James in the whole Church. At any rate, whether our Lord appeared to him especially or no, our S. James became a believer, and was added to the number of the Apostles, like S. Paul and S. Barnabas. Then within a few years he was assigned to the charge of the Church in Jerusalem, so that he became the first example of an Apostle localized, performing the duties of what we now call a Diocesan Bishop.
