Shipwrecks, storms, and venomous snakes OH MY! Join us as we finish the book of Acts with the thrilling tale of Paul's voyage to Rome. From the moment Paul requests an audience with Caesar, he faces a 1,400-mile odyssey fraught with peril. While Acts wraps up with Paul's presence in Rome, it leaves us with a resounding reminder: the spreading of the good news of Jesus is far from over.
