The Lord Jesus & The Apostle Paul

This deeply moving and insightful series explores the extraordinary connection between the Lord Jesus Christ and the Apostle Paul. With a careful, heartfelt approach, Bro. Andrew Walker examines how the life, ministry, and character of Jesus profoundly shaped Paul’s identity, mission, and message. Through each class, we witness Paul’s transformation from persecutor to preacher, his deepening relationship with Christ, and how his ministry reflected the compassion, courage, and conviction of his Lord. These studies offer more than historical or theological knowledge—they invite us to consider how the same Christ who changed Paul continues to call and mold us today.
