Produktbeschreibung
Frank Matera begins his book with the thesis that Paul calls us to imitate him because he has learned to conform himself to Christ and to express the Paschal Mystery of Christ's death and resurrection in his life since he lives in such close and intimate union with Christ. Matera explores the genesis of Paul's spirituality so that we can better understand how and why he invites us to imitate him. Some of the themes explored are living by God's grace; dying and rising with Christ; finding power in weakness; and living by faith, hope, and love.

The goal is to draw out the implications of Paul's theology for living our lives in Christ by manifesting the Paschal Mystery in all we do. +
