What's so Great About the Apostle Paul?
N.T. Wright is back for a third time to talk to the guys over at Nomad Podcast back in October of 2013.<br /><br /><div class="MsoNormal">Okay, so perhaps on a popular level a new N. T. Wright book launch doesn’t quite match the razzmatazz of Rob Bell, but for those with a hunger for some meaty theology (written in a pleasingly engaging style), then it doesn’t get much bigger than this.</div><div class="MsoNormal"></div><div class="MsoNormal">Tom Wright is a rare breed. He somehow manages to bridge the divide between the academy and the pew (his academic stuff written as N. T. Wright, and his more popular stuff written as Tom Wright). He moves in traditional and emerging circles. And he’s a professional theologian who has a real, living faith.</div><div class="MsoNormal"></div><div class="MsoNormal">What a guy!</div><div class="MsoNormal"></div>And I got to talk with him (for the third time)!<br /><br />As with every time I hear Tom Wright speak, I’m left with a multitude of things to ponder. I was particularly struck this time though by his answer to my question ‘What do you think would be Paul’s message to the church today?’. Now obviously Tom can’t <i>know</i>the answer to this question, but he probably knows Paul better than anyone (he’s just finished a 1860 page book on him for goodness sake!). And Tom felt Paul would be deeply concerned with the disunity in the church. <audio controls=""><source src="http://traffic.libsyn.com/nomad/Nomad_Extra_Tom_Wright.mp3"></source></audio>
