Conversion is intrinsic to the Christian religion. The most remarkable conversion recorded in the New Testament is that of Paul and most Christians consider Christ s encounter with Paul to be a prototype of Christian conversion generally. This collection of eleven essays gives Paul s conversion a firmer rootage in the biblical materials while also emphasizing personal application. The contributors examine the nature of Paul s Damascus Road experience and the impact of that experience on his thought and ministry and explore how Paul s experience functions as a paradigm for Christian thought and action today.
