I decided to write this book because I wanted people to know that having a baby with Down syndrome is not the end of the world. Paul's start in life was very scary, my pregnancy was difficult, and he was born premature. We weren't given much hope for his survival, or that he would have any kind of life if he did, but we wanted him to be with us for however long that would be. He ended up having a very productive life. He worked, learned to use public transportation, moved into a supervised apartment, and was married to his Down syndrome wife for twenty-five years before he passed away. This book is about how Paul was truly a special gift to his dad, myself, and all his brothers and sisters.

Download and read online ebook Paul in Israel's Story write by John L. Meech. This book was released on 2006-08-10. Paul in Israel's Story available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. It is commonplace that postmodern thought has problematized the concept of the self. This poses a particularly sharp problem for Christian theologians, for whom the idea of the person as a Christian self must be central. In this book John Meech addresses this problem by means of a theological hermeneutics that brings together cutting edge scholarship in biblical interpretation and constructive theology. The book comprises three major parts. In the first, Meech reflects on St. Paul's construal of Christian identity in light of what has become known as the "new paradigm" in Pauline studies. This movement, identified with N.T. Wright, James Dunn, and Terence Donaldson, stresses the communal aspects of Paul's thought and his narrative understanding of the self. In the second part, Meech offers a pivotal analysis of Rudolf Bultmann's phenomenology of the self and its impact on his demythologizing interpretation of Paul's writings. In the third part, Meech engages Paul Ricoeur's late work, Oneself as Another, as a guide to the postmodern problem of selfhood and as a heuristic resource for interpreting Paul's writings. He does not restrict himself to a textual treatment of Ricoeur's work on selfhood and narrative, nor does he stop at an abstract reflection on its significance for theology. Instead he explores in considerable detail the contributions and implications of Ricoeur's later writings for biblical hermeneutics and theology. Investigating the unthematized hints about community presupposed in Ricoeur's work, Meech reconfigures his ontology of the self as an ontology of the self in community. Finally, he correlates Paul's communal understanding of the "I" with this ontology, articulating a self that is constituted in community but not reduced to a mere locus of community. He argues that the community posited in his study can be understood as the community of the living and dead in Christ.
