Les teaches that from his time in prison, Paul writes what are called the prison letters or the prison epistles: Ephesians, Philippians, and Colossians. He explains that these letters represent a jump up doctrinally in depth and understanding from what came before. The earlier material included Paul's original ministry in Asia Minor, Greece, and Corinth, along with the letter to the Romans, the letters to the Corinthians, and the letter to the Galatians. Before starting Ephesians, Les also mentions the first and second Thessalonian letters as part of the unfolding of the church epistles of Paul.
