Penned nearly 2,000 years ago to a specific group of believers, Paul’s Letter to the Romans has as much relevance today as when it was first written, according to Thomas D. Stegman, S.J., dean of Boston College’s School of Theology and Ministry. In his new book, Written for Our Instruction: Theological and Spiritual Riches in Romans (Paulist Press, 2017), Fr. Stegman explores the messages in Paul’s writing. Fr. Stegman, whose expertise is in the New Testament, is also the author of  Opening the Door of Faith: Encountering Jesus and His Call to Discipleship, Second Corinthians, and The Character of Jesus: The Linchpin to Paul’s Argument in 2 Corinthians.
