Paul the Missionary

Louis Berkhof calls Paul “a greater reformer with broader view and wider sympathies than Luther,” “a thinker more acute than Calvin,” and “an earnest lover of souls surpassing Whitefield.” A large portion of the New Testament contains his writings and is devoted to telling the story of his life and influence. In his series of addresses to a missions society in Flagstaff, Arizona in 1915—here reprinted in Paul the Missionary—Berkhof implored his listeners to look to his example. The first three lectures are biographical, and the final lecture contains an exposition on grace based on Paul’s writings.
