I had the great privilege of being invited to give a lecture at the Lanier Theology Library in Houston, Texas, USA back in February of this year.
I gave a lecture on the Apocalyptic Paul, specifically, “A Story of Paul’s Theology Between Messianic Event and Salvation History.” It is partly an appreciation and a critique of the Apocalyptic Paul of Lou Martyn and, to a lesser degree, Douglas Campbell. The lecture itself is something of a preview of a chapter from my forthcoming book An Anomalous Jew: Paul among Jews, Greeks, and Romans (Grand Rapids, MI: Eerdmans, forthcoming 2016).
Along the way I mention Bernie Sanders, Marcion, Oprah, and Reggae!
And some of the Q&A is funny!!!
My deepest thanks to Mark Lanier for sponsoring the event and to Charles Mickey for organizing it.
