Paul's Captive Journey To Rome (The Shipwreck)

Our lesson this week featured Paul's journey aboard the ship heading for Rome.  We started at Caesarea and concluded our lesson at Malta.  Paul warned the centurion to consider a different route.  He was familiar with traveling by sea and the unrelenting storms that have come up.  However, the centurion did not listen to Paul.  They continued and the storm became even worse.  One night, an angel appears to Paul and encourages him.  Paul then encourages the crew that they will be safe.  At one point, Paul prays and breaks the break so that all the men would be strengthened.  Can you imagine?  No matter what we are going through God is with us. I have always been encouraged by Paul and his choices.   The children really liked this journey through Paul's conversion, experiences at Antioch and his missionary journeys.

Blessings to All,

Linda
