First Missionary Journey
Paul goes to Galatia (AD 46-48)

     (Acts 13:14)

Paul and Barnabas were sent out from the church at Antioch (Acts:1-3), traveling to the cities of Galatia in Asia Minor. The Jewish synagogues in these cities provided Paul with a platform for preaching the gospel. At times, however, he encounters opposition from people in the synagogues.


Second Missionary Journey
Paul goes to Greece (AD 49-52)

     (Acts 15:39 - 18:22)

Paul, starting from Jerusalem, took Silas to visit again the churches of Galatia. Timothy joined them in Lystra. Together they went to Macedonia and Achaia, which is present-day Greece. On this journey the Philippian jailer was saved, the Bereans "searched the Scriptures daily", and Paul preached at Areopagus.


Third Missionary Journey
Paul revisits Asia and Greece (AD 53-58)

     (Acts 18:23 - 21:16)

Paul visited the churches in Galatia for a third time, and then settled in Ephesus for more than two years. After leaving Ephesus, Paul traveled again to Macedonia and Achaia (Greece) and stayed for three months. He returned to Asia by way of Macedonia. He wrote 1st Corinthians from Ephesus, 2nd Corinthians from Macedonia, and the letter to the Romans from Corinth.


Paul's Final Voyage to Rome
(AD 59)

     (Acts 27:1 - 28:16)

In Jerusalem after his third missionary journey, Paul struggled with Jews who accused him of profaning the temple. He was placed in Roman custody in Caesarea for two years; however, after appealing to Caesar, he was sent by ship to Rome but was shipwrecked on Malta by a great storm. Paul finally arrived three months later in Rome.
