Paul: Bolinda Beginner Guides

by Morna D. Hooker, Paul English (Narrator)

The Apostle Paul has shaped the course of Christian ethics for centuries and is widely regarded as the most influential theologian in the Christian tradition. In this authoritative introduction, Morna D. Hooker offers a female perspective on a figure usually portrayed as a conservative misogynist. Looking behind the epistles to reconstruct the real man and his beliefs, she places the scriptures in their original context and suggests a consistent and coherent Pauline theology. Original and thought-provoking, this concise study is essential for all who seek to learn more about the most controversial figure in Christianity.

I don't know. It's well written. Hooker is an expert and I have the utmost respect for her. But theology that focuses on the minutiae is the equivalent of examining the difference between my toenails and then comparing the other foot. I know this shouldn't be my attitude but I find this sort of stuff very dry. Necessary, perhaps, but dry.
