Jesus\' teachings turned the world upside down.
This 16-week Bible Study will help you eavesdrop on conversations between Paul and the people that he loved and led, so you can glean valuable lessons for how to follow Jesus\' teachings today..
True, he lived in a different time, and his specific solutions might not fit exactly in our culture, but the spirit behind Paul\'s instructions ring true in our world.
His mission was to bridge the gap between cultures and show people how to follow Jesus\' teachings in everyday life.
Born a Roman citizen, trained under the best Jewish Rabbi, and schooled in Greek culture, Paul learned to become all things to all men.
That\'s where Paul\'s letters can be helpful.
Sound familiar? After 19 centuries we still struggle with racial, gender, religious, and class issues.
Jews loving Gentiles? Men treating women with respect? Owners honoring workers? Rich people equal with the poor? Emperial citizens sharing with barbarians? You\'ve got to be kidding.
People who had been enemies for generations were now asked to love each other.
From the very first moment of its existence, the church struggled with this basic principle.
That sounds good on the surface, but it can be extremely challenging to live out in everyday life.
He told people to love each other, no matter who they were.
