This image shows the cover of a book titled "Paul for the World" by Nijay K. Gupta, with the subtitle "A Grounded Vision for Finding Meaning in This Life—Not Just the Next." The cover features a modern geometric design in blue, orange, yellow, and cream, incorporating circular and curved shapes that contain stylized cityscapes and mosaic-style portraits of bearded figures, likely representing the apostle Paul. The artwork blends ancient religious imagery with contemporary urban architecture, creating a visual bridge between historical and modern contexts. At the bottom of the image, white text announces "Coming May 2026."
🌟Cover Reveal!🌟 Paul for the World by @nijaykgupta.bsky.social unpacks a vision for finding meaning in this life--not just the next.
Paul's vision of Christianity isn't escapist. It's not all about the next life. He inspires us to live meaningfully now.

"Mainline Protestantism tried to reject the extremes of evangelical Christianity while also resisting the pull toward nonreligion. In doing so, it accelerated its own demise."
