A coastal region in southern Asia Minor — where John Mark bailed on Paul
Asia MinorA narrow coastal region in southern modern-day Turkey. Paul and Barnabas sailed here on their first missionary journey, arriving at the port of Attalia and preaching in Perga. This is where John Mark left them and returned to Jerusalem (Acts 13:13) — a departure that later caused the split between Paul and Barnabas (Acts 15:38). Jews from Pamphylia were present at Pentecost (Acts 2:10).
Acts
When Paul Chose Violence (Verbally)
The Holy Spirit taps Barnabas and Paul for the first-ever missionary road trip. Paul blinds a sorcerer, drops the most fire synagogue sermon of all time, and when the haters show up, he pivots to the Gentiles. The gospel just went worldwide, no cap.
Acts
Stoned, Left for Dead, Got Up Anyway
Paul and Barnabas are on a missions speedrun — preaching in every city, dodging assassination plots, healing a man who'd never walked, and getting mistaken for literal Greek gods. Then Paul gets stoned nearly to death and just... gets back up the next day. Plot armor? Nah. God armor.
Acts
The Shipwreck That Couldn't Stop the Mission
Paul gets shipped off to Rome as a prisoner, warns everyone the voyage is a terrible idea, and nobody listens. A catastrophic storm hits, all hope is lost, but God sends an angel with a promise. The ship goes down but every single person survives. Plot armor is real when God writes the script.
