The Road from Damascus: The Impact of Paul's Conversion on His Life, Thought, and Ministry (1997) is a volume edited by Richard N. Longenecker.

Abstract

"The McMaster New Testament Studies series, edited by Richard N. Longenecker, is designed to address particular themes in the New Testament that are of concern to Christians today. Written in a style easily accessible to ministers, students, and laypeople by contributors who are proven experts in their fields of study, these volumes reflect the best of current biblical scholarship while also speaking directly to the pastoral needs of people in today's church. The contributors examine the nature of Paul's Damascus Road experience and the impact of that experience on his thought and ministry, and explore how Paul's experience functions as a paradigm for Christian thought and action today."--Publisher description.
