Correct understanding of justification by Paul

I wrote this statement, correcting the traditional doctrine:
"Justification by the grace of God through the faithfulness of Jesus for all who share in his faith."
(Yung Suk Kim, based on Rom 3:21-26)


I wrote extensively about Paul's theology, featuring the threefold gospel, where three elements are essential: God's righteousness, Jesus's faithfulness, and Christian participation in the faith of Jesus. 
For example, see my recent publication, How to Read Paul (Fortress, 2021). 
The more I teach, the more I am convinced about this.

At the Intersection of Hermeneutics and Homiletics

I have some exciting news! I received the typeset pages for my edited volume, At the Intersection of Hermeneutics and Homiletics. I will proofread them carefully. The book is approximately 290 pages long, and I expect it to be published in May or June. Thanks to all of my contributors for their support.
