Pauline Epistles

Pauline Epistles this semester has been a very interesting experience for me this semester. I have spent most of my life in ignorance of most of whom and what Paul was. I have learned that much of what Paul wrote was very culturally significant. I had always struggled with much of Paul’s teachings because they seemed almost anti Christian in a manner of speaking. Much of what I learned was a result of understanding the cultural significance of Paul.

This class has taught me to look more critically at the text and the understanding of how to interpret the Pauline Epistles. The books that I have obtained for this class will be invaluable resources to me in my coming ministry. This class has armed me with the necessary knowledge to interpret this scripture. The Pauline Corpus has taken on new meaning and will now be a more effective and powerful tool for me both on a ministerial level and on a person level.
