Meme by The Episcopal Church. Closeup photo of an ancient Christian etching of a man's face with the name Paulus (Italian, 4th Century CE). White text at top of picture says "The Episcopal Church" with a picture of the Episcopal shield. The collect of the day is superimposed over the etching. "O God, by the preaching of your apostle Paul you have caused the light of the Gospel to shine throughout the world: Grant, we pray, that we, having his wonderful conversion in remembrance, may show ourselves thankful to you by following his holy teaching; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.

If it makes you feel better, they aren't Christians. They're Paulists. You know, the apostle who never met Jesus and who converted after persecuting Christians. I think he had a neuro issue what with the voices and temp blindness.

This text approaches Paul's letter not simply as a monologue from an authoritative apostle but as part of an ongoing, dynamic conversation within a diverse and complex early Christian community.

The Apostle Paul was struck blind by God for his blindness to who God truly was. He was so transformed through his conversion and faith that he would go on to refuse to use his rights as a citizen as he rested in jail on his way to execution.

Saint Paul is the antithesis of Christian nationalism.

I have written a collect, for the feast of the Conversion of St Paul, in this year of Our Lord 2026. (It's a bit wordy, but it felt apt):

Almighty God,
You called St Paul to repentance for his threats and violence
And to bear witness to the power of your love revealed in weakness.

Today is the Conversion of Paul, and here’s a little bit about what exactly that means. Heddiw yw’r Tröedigaeth Paul, a dyma ychydig am beth yn union y mae hynny'n ei olygu. lectionary.churchinwales.org.uk/

What is the Conversion of St Paul? Beth yw Trosiad Sant Paul? This feast day celebrates the moment that Saul - intense persecutor of the early church - had a divine revelation. According to Acts 9, Saul was on the road to Damascus when he was blinded by a bright light from heaven. Jesus spoke to him, and he was converted. He changed his name to Paul and spent the rest of his life as a celebrated apostle. Mae'r ŵyl hon yn dathlu'r foment y cafodd Saul - erlidwr dwys yr eglwys gynnar - ddatguddiad dwyfol. Yn ôl Actau 9, roedd Saul ar y ffordd i Damascus pan gafodd ei ddallu gan olau llachar o'r nefoedd. Siaradodd Iesu ag ef, a chafodd ei drosi. Newidiodd ei enw i Paul a threuliodd weddill ei oes fel apostol enwog.
