For those inspired by Barclay's Paul and the Gift
Over the course of his academic career, John M. G. Barclay has transformed how we think about Paul. Barclay's contributions to Pauline Studies reached a new height with the publication of his award-winning Paul and the Gift, in which he presents a sophisticated reading of Paul's theology of grace within the context of gift-giving in the Greco-Roman world. But where does Pauline scholarship go from here?
- Paul's soteriology
- The role of grace in Paul's life and ministry
- Implications of the New Perspective on Paul
- Divine giving in the Gospels
- Gift-giving and Christian aesthetics
- Interpretations of Pauline grace from the patristic period to the present
- Self-giving and self-care
- Grace and ministry in marginalized communities
