Paul's Letter to the Romans
Fee:聽$60 | Six Weeks
Written nearly 2000 years ago, Paul's Letter to the Romans, as its name suggests, addresses the situation and concerns of first century Romans. And yet, this letter from Paul, like all of Scripture, is a word for us today as well.
This course looks at key theological issues as discussed in Romans, including God, Jesus, Spirit, Salvation, and the Church. Paul鈥檚 pastoral concerns in the letter are particularly relevant now as they address the importance of unity and diversity in the Church as products of the Holy Spirit. The concepts of faithfulness and righteousness are reexamined as calls to generous and life-giving relationship and engagement with contemporary social concerns.
