Description

St. Paul' s initial transformation was a dramatic shift from Saul to Paul, from persecutor to believer, from darkness to light. And yet, the scales falling from his eyes was only the beginning: he lived and taught the lesson of transformation for the rest of his life.

In his book, Fr. Cromly reveals the universality and timelessness of St. Paul' s leadership, what can happen if we let Christ transform our lives, and how we can find guidance from this great saint who is, in fact, much like us. Just a few of the lessons we can learn include:

Five essential questions that help us engage our God-given freedom into actionThe forms of inner paralysis that result from giving in to fear and negativityHow to follow Christ' s call to love in whatever state of life we find ourselves in How God meets us where we are broken and weak and how to be open to it The role of the Holy Spirit in confronting fear and uncertainty St. Paul' s secret to turning negative circumstances into positive resultsThe redemptive role of the " daily grind" and how to use it to glorify God

Paul is the one who dares us to be impactful Christians in an often-perilous world, and who shows us how to transform our fears into courage, our rejections into opportunities, our suffering into grace, and our solitude into union with Christ.
