Journeys

The Book of Acts records three missionary journeys that took Paul throughout Cyprus, Asia Minor,Macedonia and Greece. Some scholars argue that there may have been a fourth missionary journey as well. In each of these, Paul and his companions set out to bring the gospel to Gentiles, and they established the churches to whom Paul wrote in his epistles.

In some cases, Paul spent well over a year in the cities where he preached, living with the believers and modeling a lifestyle that imitated Christ. Over the course of his life, Paul likely traveled over 10,000 miles, (by foot and by sea) to spread the gospel.
