Join one of Catholicism’s best living Romans scholars in a masterful exploration of St. Paul’s greatest theological work, the Letter to the Romans.

Few books of the Bible are as important to believers as the Letter to the Romans. It appears in the Catholic Lectionary more frequently than almost any other New Testament epistle, and it is Paul’s greatest explanation of faith through the Gospel of Jesus. Written in the earliest days of the Church, Romans remains an inspiring and revealing document.

Through these six thought-provoking audio lectures, you will gain fresh insights into this vitally important letter. Pauline expert Fr. Frank Matera will help you understand the Christian message more deeply and confront the Word of God in powerful ways. In these lectures, you will first learn about the authorship and historical context of Paul's letter as well as the occasion for its writing. You will then address the content of the book of Romans. 

As you will come to understand, Romans contains one of the clearest explanations of salvation through Jesus Christ while also touching on elements of everyday life. Fr. Matera’s New Testament expertise will provide new insights, challenges, and avenues for further study of St. Paul’s entire body of epistles.

Let the words of St. Paul inspire you today.
