Story of the Life of St. Paul, the Apostle

"Story of the Life of St. Paul, the Apostle" by Mary Seymour is a narrative that charts the transformation of a man from zealous persecutor to dedicated messenger of a new faith in the ancient world. The story begins with Saul of Tarsus, a passionate Pharisee set against the early Christians, and follows his stunning conversion on the road to Damascus, a turning point guided by a divine encounter. After this experience, he becomes a changed man, embracing baptism, embarking on missionary journeys, and facing trials as he shares his beliefs. The book pays particular attention to his mission to spread the Gospel to non-Jewish people, exploring the pushback from the people he spoke to, all while portraying his tenacity and the impact of his work in laying the foundations of Christianity.
