Description

A study of the letters in the Pauline corpus that speak of having been written while Paul was in prison. The course begins with background on prison settings in Paul's ministry as we know them from the book of Acts, and then moves to a study of the literary features, theology, christology, and ecclesiology of Philippians, Philemon, Colossians, Ephesians and 2 Timothy. Special attention is paid to the exegesis and proclamation of these letters in present day ministry contexts.
