Synopsis

The apostle Paul is often associated with a theological perspective focused on the afterlife and eternity. But what if Paul’s letters aren’t just about the next life? What if he teaches us how to live transformed lives here and now? In Paul for the World, acclaimed New Testament scholar Nijay K. Gupta offers a compelling vision of Pauline theology rooted in everyday Christian living. He shows how Paul’s teaching · speaks to real-life concerns like friendship, work, culture, mental health, money, and justice; · brings ethics, spiritual formation, and discipleship together; and · inspires us to live meaningfully in a weary, imperfect world. Accessible and hopeful, this book calls Christians to move beyond escapist spirituality and embrace Paul’s life-affirming theology—a vision that transforms every dimension of life with resurrection-rooted purpose.
