APOSTLE PAUL, HIS LIFE AND LESSONS

APOSTLE PAUL, HIS LIFE AND LESSONS This book is an attempt to know Paul better. Not just the theological Paul whose letters fill seminaries and pulpits, but the human Paul. The man who wept over churches he had planted. The man who argued bitterly with Barnabas, his dearest companion, over a young man named Mark. The man who wrote about contentment from the inside of a prison cell, who begged his friends to bring him his cloak and his scrolls because winter was coming and he was cold. Paul is, in many ways, the defining figure of Christian history after Jesus himself. His letters constitute nearly a third of the New Testament. His missionary journeys mapped the early spread of the faith across three continents. His theological insights, including justification by faith, the nature of the church as the body of Christ, and the radical equality of all people in Christ Jesus, have shaped Western civilization in ways that are still unfolding.
