Pope Benedict XVI has proclaimed a year dedicated to St. Paul, beginning on June 29, 2008. Readers can celebrate the Year of St. Paul by praying through this unique collection of meditations by renowned biblical scholar and retired archbishop of Milan, Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini.

In simple and moving language, Cardinal Martini weaves together St. Paul's life, character, and teachings in such a way that readers come to know the apostle as a human being with the same hopes and struggles that they have. Cardinal Martini reflects upon the pivotal periods of Paul’s life that shaped his future ministry.

The meditations in this book, most of which are being published in English for the first time, will help readers better understand St. Paul and his New Testament teachings and what they mean for Christians in the 21st century.
