Nearly 2,000 years have passed since the time of the Apostle Paul, and this figure still causes controversy. Whatever he was accused of - anti-Semitism, misogyny, justification of slavery! Starting to study the life path and spiritual works of St. Paul, the famous historian of religion, philosopher and publicist Karen Armstrong was determined to demonstrate his role in perverting the essence of the teachings of Christ. But very quickly it became clear to her that this judgment was erroneous and unfair. From the book we learn about Paul - not only a passionate preacher of Christian doctrine, but also a champion of social, ethnic and gender equality. Often he was not understood even by his closest associates, prominent representatives of the early Christian movement. However, according to Karen Armstrong, we still have much to learn from this man of high spiritual aspirations and uncompromising firmness in following the chosen path.
