About this listen
The Apostle Paul was kind of a jerk. He was arrogant and stubborn. He called his opponents derogatory, racist names. He legitimized slavery and silenced women. He was a moralistic, homophobic killjoy who imposed his narrow religious views on others. Or was he?
Randolph Richards and Brandon O'Brien explore the complicated persona and teachings of the Apostle Paul. Unpacking his personal history and cultural context, they show how Paul both offended Roman perspectives and scandalized Jewish sensibilities. His vision of Christian faith was deeply disturbing to those in his day and remains so in ours. Paul behaved badly, but not just in the ways we might think. Take another look at Paul and see why this "worst of sinners" dared to say, "Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ."

Thought-provoking biblical scholarship
Very interesting look at Paul’s teaching in some hotly debated subjects such as the position of women in the church. And an in- depth look at Paul’s method of using the Jewish Bible/ Old Testament.

Thought provoking and creates more questions.
Some very interesting and insightful ideas, Which is giving me a lot to think about. I totally disagree with their view of homosexuality, I don't have the space or time to put my arguments here. I would love to debate as one Christian to another.
