PAUL for EVERYONE
THE PASTORAL LETTERS
1 AND 2 TIMOTHY AND TITUS
Writing in an approachable and anecdotal style, Tom Wright helps us to see the pastoral nature of these three letters. They are not just instruction books for junior disciples, but a guide to a way of life, and in many ways appropriate to all Christians.
Two strands in particular run through the letters. First, Paul I anxious that those who profes the faith should allow the gospel to transform the whole of their lives, right down to the deepest parts of their personality. Second, he is anxious that every teacher of the faith should know how to build up the community in mutual support, rather than tear it apart through the wrong sort of teaching and behaviour.
ABOUT THE SERIES: ... for Everyone:
A major new series of guides to the books of the New Testament.
Tom Wright has undertaken a tremendous task: to provide guides to all the books of the New Testament, and to furnish them with his own fresh translation of the entire text. Each short passage is followed by a highly readble discussion with background information.
The series is suitable for personal or group use. The format makes it appropriate also for daily study.
"This enterprise is probably the most exciting thing to have happened in Christian education in Britain for many years."
