About this listen
Can you imagine what it would be like to meet Paul the Apostle?
You are invited to encounter Paul and his remarkable legacy as never before. Your guide is world-renowned Pauline expert Fr. Ronald Witherup, Superior General of the Sulpician Order.
Arguably, Paul's influence on Christianity has been greater than that of any other writer. The 13 epistles attributed to Paul have influenced great figures of Christian history from St. Augustine to Martin Luther to contemporary theologians, as well as an untold number of believers.
And yet, St. Paul has posed problems for many people. He has been misunderstood as distorting the message of Jesus, leading true Christianity astray, promoting misogyny, and encouraging negative attitudes toward human sexuality. Still, many find his letters sublime and encouraging.
Through these thoughtful lectures, you will enter Paul's world, understand his life, see his conversion unfold, examine his theology, and explore his letters.
You simply cannot understand Christianity without understanding this remarkable Apostle and his works, which remain life-changing and controversial two millennia after they were written. Now you can take a fascinating 24-lecture audio course on Paul by one of the Catholic Church's leading experts, whenever and wherever you want.
This course is part of the Learn25 collection.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Why is The Book of Enoch so important to anyone interested in Biblical history? The answer is simple: It is directly quoted in the New Testament by Jude (vv.14-15). Themes of the book referenced in 2 Peter 2:1. Jesus also used content from The Book of Enoch in many of his sermons in Matthew and Luke. In this text, you will hear the word of God through this amazing document. We will take this amazing journey together and learn why this text is not an official book of the Bible.

Story
The book of Enoch was thought to be lost for over 2,000 years until, in 1773, a traveller brought three copies back from Ethiopia. Whether or not this ancient book was actually authored by Enoch, the father of Methuselah and great-grandfather of Noah, is an ongoing debate among historians and theologians. But all recognise the book of Enoch as one of the most important apocalyptic works outside of the Bible.

Great overview of Paul
Gave a great overview of Paul’s ministry and his message. Context and clues also provided some important components in understanding Paul’s letters and main intentions. It was my first book on Paul and I really liked it.
