Saint Paul Writing His Epistles, Valentin de Boulogne, 1618-1620

Paul's epistle to the Romans is often considered his magnum opus, a definitive statement on how mankind can be set at rights with the divine. Today, the Third Hour Podcasts investigates the first three chapters of Paul's most comprehensive letter, beginning with a massive existential problem — that everyone falls short of the glory of God.

Next week, Paul's argument reaches its crescendo — and a solution. Join us in reading Romans 4-11 to see how he responds to the problem laid out in the first three chapters.
