Christian Formation

286 - New Perspectives on Paul (with Dr. Gregory Lanier)


Listen Later

In this episode, we invite Dr. Gregory Lanier to discuss the New Perspectives on Paul (NPP)—what the view is, its historical context, and its implications for understanding the book of Galatians.

What are the New Perspectives on Paul? Should Christians today be open to a fresh look at Paul’s theology, specifically around "justification"? What are the dangers of this belief system? And how does all of that impact a church’s study through the book of Galatians?

Join us as we discuss the NPP together.

Takeaways

  • The New Perspective on Paul challenges traditional views on how "justification" is defined, and Galatians serves as a critical text for these debates.
  • Key figures like N.T. Wright have significantly influenced modern scholarship of the NPP.
  • Pastoral implications arise from how we interpret justification and community.
  • A balanced view of the gospel includes both personal and communal aspects.
