Saint Paul : Changing Our World For Christ

“In ‘Saint Paul’, we discern the heart and soul behind much of Adolphe Monod’s ministry. Yes, he wanted to lead his listeners and especially his own parishioners to the foot of the cross so that they would commit their lives to Christ, but that was just the beginning. He also wanted to raise up a generation of young people who would, through their faith and action, bring renewal to the church. Beyond that, even, his ultimate goal was to see the renewed church transform society and change the world. That was the need in nineteenth century France, and it is still the need today.” -from the Translator’s Preface
