Paul

Paul, aka. Saul, is an important guy as Christian history goes. His ultra-jewishness, dramatic conversion and subsequent hard-core life of service makes for a pretty interesting biography. The BBC program ‘In Our Time’ with Melvyn Bragg recently did a program all about Paul, and it’s good listening, especially as we start out on Romans at Unichurch. It’s good to get to know the guy behind the letter. You can find the podcast here.
