From Damascus to Rome: A Pastor’s Reflections on the Life and Legacy of St. Paul

From Demascus to Rome is a deeply personal and spiritually rich journey through the life and letters of the Apostle Paul. From his fiery beginnings as a zealous persecutor to his final days as a faithful witness in chains, Paul’s story is one of radical transformation, profound teaching, and relentless devotion to Christ.Drawing from decades of pastoral experience, hospice chaplaincy, prison ministry, and personal reflection, Geoffrey Schmitt walks alongside Paul in this compelling blend of biblical narrative, devotional insight, and lived wisdom. Each chapter explores a season of Paul’s life, accompanied by heartfelt prayers, reflection questions, and autobiographical moments that ground the ancient text in today’s world.The book concludes with “Paul’s Greatest Hits”—a curated collection of ten beloved passages from his epistles, offering encouragement and depth for readers at every stage of faith.Whether you’re a student of Scripture, a seeker of deeper understanding, or simply someone looking to finish the race well, this book will help you see Paul not only as a towering apostle but as a brother in Christ—and a companion in the journey of grace.Read more
