Loose Leaf Class
 Room 100

The Loose Leaf Class is reading two contrasting studies of the life and influence of Paul: Karen Armstrong’s St. Paul: the Apostle We Love to Hate takes a fairly traditional view of Paul as essential to early Christianity and in rebellion against the Roman Empire while J. Albert Harrill’s Paul the Apostle: His Life and Legacy in their Roman Context presents a much more nuanced view of Paul as being very much a Roman citizen. Both books deepen our study of the emergence of Christianity in the first four centuries after Jesus’ birth and the role of Christianity in the Roman Empire.

Vickie & Walter Buenger teach the class.
