Module Description
In his letters, Paul addresses issues in community and we find ourselves overhearing persuasive arguments. Paul frames his teaching in a context of prayer, especially prayer of thanksgiving. But the teaching on prayer is more than a frame. It belongs to the heart of his applied theology. This short course will be based on the seven undisputed letters. We will start with the thanksgivings in six of the letters, see other prayer in context and close with the great chapter 8 of Romans.
Kieran O’Mahony is an Augustinian friar and a biblical scholar, with particular interest in the letters of St Paul and the Gospel according to John.

Currently, he is publishing a 9-volume series called “Hearers of the Word” on the readings for Advent, Lent and Eastertide. With Jessie Rogers and Seán Goan he is on the team of the newly formed Tarsus Scripture School. For more information visit www.tarsus.ie.
