In our first worship gathering since Resurrection Sunday, we reflect upon the conversion of a murderous zealot into one of the most influential figures in the early Church; Paul/Saul reminding us that the journey of renewal is ever unfolding. (sermon begins at 01:00)

Scripture & Quotations

Acts 9:1-22

Galatians 1:13-14

1 Timothy 1:13-15

1 Corinthians 15:9-10

“The convictions that form the background for Christian growth take the form of a narrative that requires conversion, since the narrative never treats the formation of the self as completed… Christians are called to a new way of life that requires nothing less than a transvaluation of their past reality — repentance…. Therefore, conversion denotes the necessity of a turning of the self that is so fundamental that the self is placed on a path of growth for which there is no end.”
