Wherever you call home, each of us looks forward to our eternal home with Jesus in Heaven.  Rev. 21:1-3 is our inspiration for today's travels.

Today is why you came to Rome.  Enjoy it!

Today we see the great artworks of Florence, many of which are religious in nature.  If you find the time, the inside of the Duomo is quite stunning, especially its famous dome.

Today we visit lots of Churches, named for the apostles and which commemorate them, their faith, and their faithful deeds.

Today we see the Ancient and Modern sides of Greece

Athens was the crossroads of the earth and Corinth was along one of its main trade routes.  Preaching in a way that would reach all sorts of people was (and is) important.

More beautiful scenery is on tap for us today as we consider what Paul's disastrous trip to Rome through these waters might have looked like as they were tossed about for 14 days before finally being shipwrecked on Malta.  We also get to spend an afternoon on the beautiful island of Santorini.

Today we hear about John's and Paul's ministry in Ephesus and see where this ministry took place, especially in the theater where there was almost a riot based upon opposition to the church there in Ephesus.  

What could be better than a relaxing day at sea?  How about soaking up the sun on the Greek Island of Mykonos, strolling its shops, and seeing its marvelous windmills?  Let us give thanks to the Lord for such beautiful days as these.

In today's episode we hear Paul's letter to Philemon, asking him to be reconciled with his former slave for the ministry of the Gospel.
