Paul and the Corinthians: The Life and Letters of Paul: Life and Times of Paul

Paul and the Corinthians explores the sometimes tumultuous relationship between Paul and the Christians in Corinth who were struggling to make sense of their faith in a diverse and secular culture. Wingard relates his firsthand knowledge of the setting of Corinth and applies Paul's wisdom to some of the most pressing issues faced by the church today: The Church and the Bible, Making Moral Decisions, Christian Unity, Women and Men in Church and Society, The Resurrection, Christian Giving, and Reconciliation in a Broken World. Each of the seven sessions is self-contained and includes questions for reflection.

Dr. Robert W. Wingard (1937-1997) was Densen Franklin Professor of Religion and Director of Church Relations at Birmingham-Southern College and also served as a pastor in the United Methodist Church for sixteen years. He received his Doctor of Ministry from Emory University in 1989 and studied Biblical Archaeology at St. George's College in Jerusalem. A highly sought guest lecturer, Dr. Wingard lectured throughout Greece on the life and ministry of Paul and led four expeditions to Greece, Turkey and the Greek Islands for in-depth study of Paul's ministry. His writings include Portraits of Christ in Scripture, Portraits of Christ Volume 2 (Discipleship Resources) and many articles.
