Description
An exploration of connections between Paul's epistles, Reformation theology, and contemporary understandings of public life. Particular attention is given to political imagery in Pauline texts and Luther's notions of "joyous exchange," "putting on the neighbor," and the ecclesial discernment of truth. In conversation with Paul, Luther, and theories of public space, a proposal is offered for the nature and necessity of confessing Christ for Christian leadership for the truth of the gospel.
