His letter was arguably his theological masterpiece, and has continued to shape Christian faith ever since. He entrusted this letter to Phoebe, the deacon of the church at Cenchreae; in writing to the church that almost surely met in her home, Paul refers to her both as a deacon and as a helper or patron of many. But who was this remarkable woman? In this, her first work of fiction, Biblical scholar and popular author and speaker Paula Gooder tells Phoebe's story - who she was, the life she lived and her 1st-century faith - and in doing so opens up Paul's theology, giving a sense of the cultural and historical pressures that shaped Paul's thinking, and the faith of the early church.00aPhoebec(Biblical figure)vFiction.00aBible.pNew TestamentxHistory of Biblical eventsvFiction. 0aWomen in the BiblevFiction. 0aChurch historyyPrimitive and early church, ca. 30-600vFiction.  a7bcbcccopycatd3encipf20gy-gencatlg  apurchased20190321nI-200011565sProQuest0 aacquireb1 shelf copyxpolicy default  cBK  wxm04 2019-06-14wlt14  eVENDOR LOAD  c11241d11241  00104070aEGSTLbEGSTLcCIRCd2025-03-09l0o822.92 Goo 2018p20784r2025-06-30 00:00:00w2025-03-09yBK
