In this episode, Laurence Freeman identifies what we may feel about St. Paul. Is his complex personality so different from ours? In his historical context, we can get past our first reactions to some of the tough passages in his letters, showing us a tenderly passionate, earthily mystical individual wrestling with his destiny like a boddhisatva who loved Christ more than himself. This podcast is part of the first session from the online series Seeing What St Paul Saw held in 2022.
