The Call: Paul's Legacy (or "Show Me Your Scars")

In this series, I am looking at the Apostle Paul. The series runs parallel to my congregation reading the book The Call by Adam Hamilton and doing the same study in Sunday school.

Here I look at what Paul may have looked like, how to understand his suffering, and his ultimate legacy.

The Call: Paul's Writings (or "Why did Paul Get Writer's Cramp?")

In this series, I am looking at the Apostle Paul. The series runs parallel to my congregation reading the book The Call by Adam Hamilton and doing the same study in Sunday school.

In this sermon, I look at Paul's writings, how to read someone else's mail, and the entire book of Philemon.

 

The Call: Paul's Personality (or "Was Paul a Jerk?")

In this series, I am looking at the Apostle Paul. The series runs parallel to my congregation reading the book The Call by Adam Hamilton and doing the same study in Sunday school.

In this sermon I take on some of Paul's harsher moments, particularly his view on women. Along the way, we learn about the importance of historical and literal context and reading ancient books for modern wisdom.

I am indebted to the book Paul Behaving Badly for helping me think through some of these issues.

In this series, I am looking at the Apostle Paul. The series runs parallel to my congregation reading the book The Call by Adam Hamilton and doing the same study in Sunday school.

I am indebted to Rob Bell's film The God's aren't Angry for inspiring the overall message of this story.

The Call: Paul's Life (or "Who was Paul?")

In this series, I am looking at the Apostle Paul. The series runs parallel to my congregation reading the book The Call by Adam Hamilton and doing the same study in Sunday school.
