Paul’s Pictures – Dr. James Fickenscher

Tangible: Theology Learned and Lived explores the ways in which theology permeates all aspects of life. Through conversations with the faculty of Concordia Seminary, we will challenge you to deepen your theology and live out your faith in Christ. Jessica Bordeleau talks with a variety of guests on a variety of topics, but all point to the intersection of faith and daily life. It’s tangible: theology learned and lived.

The Apostle Paul wrote to real churches in real time, using metaphors that the original readers found relatable. He described our relationship with God and within our community using images like buildings, the human body, and family households. The more we understand the context of these metaphors, the more tangible they become. Join Dr. James Fickenscher, professor of exegetical theology, in an exploration of the simple word pictures that Paul used to convey deep spiritual truths.
