Paul and Religion demonstrates the continuing and contemporary
relevance of the most important, and most controversial, figure of
early Christianity. Paul Gooch interrogates the Pauline writings
for their meaning as well as implications for religion as an entire
form of life, a stance on the world expressed in distinctive
practices. Bringing a philosophical approach to this topic, he
connects Paul's ideas to lived experience. In a conversational
style, Gooch explores Paul's experience of grace and his dismissal
of distinctive markers of religious identity in favour of love as
binding together a community. Contrary to common expectations, he
finds within Paul's letters material for conversations about issues
in our day, such as gender and sexuality. From his close reading of
the Letters, Gooch argues that the Pauline religious form of life
is not identical with institutional Christianity. Indeed, his
conclusions may be welcome to those who belong to other faiths.
