I recently read N.T. Wright's Paul: A Biography and enjoyed it immensely. There is much in it that expands my understanding of Paul and his times. A biography is different than a history. It teaches one about the person on the inside as well as the person on the outside. Including, in this instance, Paul's battles with self-doubt and depression, and his total dependence upon his faith. It is faith that fueled Paul's pursuit of holiness, and it is our faith that makes the seemingly impossible goal of holiness realistic in our lives, in this world, and in this time.
