Video description:
What was the Apostle Paul REALLY like? Why did he travel to places like Corinth and Ephesus? Why did he write so many documents that are part of the New Testament? What are some of the core aspects of his theology, and why did he communicate those in certain ways? What were his relationships with people like Peter, Timothy and Barnabas like? Is Acts historically reliable, when it comes to Paul’s life in particular? How can we know? This, and so much more, is what Frank Thielman’s new book is all about!
