Description: Wiles introduces Paul's theology by helping readers bridge the gaps of time and place between twenty-first-century Western readers and the first-century Mediterranean apostle. Writing with undergraduates in mind, Wiles especially relies upon solid interpretation coupled with modern analogies and engages the reader in a meaningful way. Taking her cue from the notion that what may be familiar may not necessarily be understood, Wiles shows how assuming knowledge of Paul's thought world and language leads to confusion and misunderstanding. Thus "familiar" terms such as righteousness, sin, law, and grace take on a new dimension under Wiles's guiding hand. Paul's experience of God is also factored in as a very real dimension of his relationship with God. Wiles thinks once we are able to appreciate Paul in his own context, then Paul's writings offer lessons about human existence for believer and nonbeliever alike.

"Making Sense of Paul is a refreshingly insightful and splendid attempt to allow the complexity of the Apostle's theology to become intelligible both for the beginner as well as for the mature learner. Even those who might wish to place the emphases at different points in Paul's thought will profit from the lucidity of expression and the use of consistently thought-provoking and helpful illustrations. This magnificent little gem fills a huge void in Pauline literature and rightly will find very wide usage."
-Karl Paul Donfried, Professor and Chair, Department of Religion and Biblical Literature, Smith College

Description: Discover the Secrets of a Man Who Helped Launch an Enterprise that Changed the History of the World!

Maybe you are a person who is poised to embark on a new phase in life-but just unsure on how to get started. Or maybe you have been on the same journey for a number of years-and now need some renewal and fresh perspective.

You're not content with the status quo, you want to start something new or do something better.

Perhaps it's time to consider what some would think of as an unlikely starting place--an ancient text known as the Bible--you will discover anew the story of an entrepreneurial leader who magnificently succeeded.

Almost 2000 years ago, a man helped launch an enterprise that changed the history of the world. In a time before faxes, cell phones, e-mail, Internet, even mass printing, he catalyzed a disinterested market, turning customers into true converts. It was never easy, but he sold out to his mission, took every opportunity to share his vision, invested in up and coming leaders, and endured setbacks when most others would have thrown in the towel. Within just a few generations, this entrepreneurial leader and a band of "raving fans" were said to have turned the world upside down.

Discover the secrets from the life of St. Paul--secrets that will help you turn your dreams into realities!

"Jeff Caliguire's Leadership Secrets of St. Paul is a thoughtful analysis of this important apostle's life and the leadership principles he practiced in carrying our his great mission. This is an unusual and unique book full of interesting insights into timeless principles of leadership. It's well worth reading."

Ralph Larsen Former Chairman & CEO, Johnson & Johnson

"The inspiration of the Apostle Paul has touched millions across history. Jeff Caliguire has done a wonderful job of drawing from Paul's life to inspire great leaders, and indeed, the Bible reminds us that leaders are anointed by God and appointed for a task. The theme is critical, and the truths here are drawn from one who knew how to withstand great challenge and point to excellence not only in leadership, but moreover in life as well."

Ravi Zacharias

Description: Throughout the Christian era, Paul has stood at the center of controversy, accused of being the father of Christian anti-Semitism. But have we misunderstood the man and his teachings for nearly 2,000 years? In this highly accessible book, John Gager challenges this entrenched view of Paul, arguing persuasively that Paul's words have been taken out of their original context, distorted, and generally misconstrued.
Gager takes us in search of the "real" Paul--using Paul's own writings. Through an exhaustive analysis of Paul's letters to the Galatians and the Romans, he provides illuminating answers to the key questions: Did Paul repudiate the Law of Moses? Did he believe that Jews had been rejected by God and replaced as His chosen people by Gentiles? Did he consider circumcision to be necessary for salvation? And did he expect Jews to find salvation through Jesus? To all these questions, John Gager answers no. First, he puts Paul's proselytizing in context. Paul was an apostle to the Gentiles, not the Jews. His most vehement arguments were directed not against Judaism but against competing apostles in the Jesus movement who demanded that Gentiles be circumcised and conform to Jewish law in order to be saved. Moreover, Paul relied on rhetorical devices that were familiar to his intended audience but opaque to later readers of the letters. As a result, his message has been misunderstood by all succeeding generations.
Reinventing Paul brilliantly sets forth a controversial interpretation of Paul's teaching. This thought-provoking portrait is essential reading for theologians and lay people, historians and philosophers, Christians and Jews.
