The Church's Mission to the Gentiles

Naymond H. Keathley

How did a movement that began as a reform within Judaism become, within just a few decades, one in which Jews were greatly outnumbered by Gentiles? How did a church that began on Palestinian soil become an organization spread throughout the Roman Empire? The Church’s Mission to the Gentiles traces this story in an overview of the book of Acts and in an introduction to the career and writings of the apostle Paul, the one individual most responsible for this transformation. Emphasis is given to the work of Paul as a missionary, theologian, and pastor.

Naymond H. Keathley retired as Professor of Religion at Baylor University, where he taught from 1981-2018.
