Saint Paul
St. Paul is one of the most important figures in Christian history. As Saul of Tarsus he vigorously persecuted Christianity, even collaborating in the death of Christianity's first martyr, Stephen. His encounter with the resurrected Jesus on the road to Damascus changed Paul's life, the Christian Church, and world history. More than anyone else in the early Church, Paul saw the universal nature of the Christian message. He became the Apostle to the Gentiles and the "Teacher of the Nations". As the human author of half of the New Testament, Paul is a figure who cannot be overlooked by anyone who wants to understand Jesus Christ and Christianity. In this book, Pope Benedict XVI, a profound spi...
Saint Paul
Paul's own authentic voice can still be heard in his surviving letters and epistles, and it reverberates here, along with his four evangelical journeys and the reasons for his spectacular conversion on the road to Damascus. His effect on Western thought has been immeasurable. " Never fails to be lively and well-informed." "Sunday Times. "" Grant is justly recognized as an expert and civilized guide to the ancient world." "Economist."
Saint Paul the Apostle for Every Day
A perfect compendium for the Year of Saint Paul recently announced by Pope Benedict XVI, St. Paul the Apostle for Every Day is arranged into twelve thematic chapters, one for each month. From "Coming to Know God" to "The Hope of Resurrection," Fr. Kerrigan has arranged a type of "walk" with Saint Paul from his days as a persecutor of the incipient Christian faith, to his famous conversion, to his many travels and travails around the Mediterranean to his final imprisonment and execution in Rome. The book is also the perfect introduction to Saint Paul's thought and prose style, as well as his theology. Always spiritually charged, St. Paul brings the light of Christ that blinded him and shares it with us so that we, too, may see.
30 Days with St. Paul
Saint Paul was perhaps the most important evangelist in the early Church, baptizing scores into a burgeoning Christianity. An Apostle and a martyr, he is most often remembered as a firebrand, but his letters were deeply and profoundly spiritual.In "30 Days with Saint Paul", Thomas J. Craughwell delves into the scriptures, and brings forth the devotional power of Saint Paul. An intimate encounter with one of the most powerful missionaries of Church, learn from the man who converted thousands to Christianity. Packed with excerpts from Saint Paul's epistles and other passages of scripture, and supplemented with beautiful prayers and meditations for each day, "30 Days with Saint Paul" brings the Apostle's passionate and unfailing faith to life.
Saint Paul
In Saint Paul, Elliott C. Maloney explores what the great saint says about the spiritual life, the “how to” in the day-to-day activities and concerns of Christians. How should people live in covenant relationship with God, committed to seeking God’s will in every aspect of their lives? Spirituality is a popular topic, but it is regarded as merely one part of life, some “higher level” of living when compared to ordinary living. Even Catholic scholarship, Maloney argues, notable as it is in Pauline exegesis and theology, seems to lack a feel for the overall kind of living that Paul wanted for his communities, not to mention how we might appropriate such wisdom for today. For Paul, all of a believer’s life is spiritual life. The alternative is a life “according to the flesh,” a self-centered life without God, a continual spiritual death. Based on over forty years of teaching and study of the Pauline letters, Maloney’s Saint Paul offers a rich vision of Christianity and the spiritual life “in Christ.”
