We survey the major details involved in Paul's third missionary journey beginning in the Spring of AD 54 and ending with his arrival in Jerusalem in June of AD 58. This was an amazing period of fruitful evangelistic activity for Paul, which resulted in the full establishment of several churches in Turkey, Macedonia, and Greece, from whom he raised a contribution to take to the needy saints in Jerusalem. It was on this third journey that Paul wrote three of his big epistles (1 & 2 Corinthians, and Romans). The gospel of Mark may have been written about this time as well. There is a PDF lesson outline available for this podcast. Send an email to preterist1@preterist.org and request it by its date.
