Lesson 2: A Ministry in Chains
Mar 15, 2026 • Mitch Davis
This lesson tracks Paul’s voyage as a prisoner to Italy, including the kindness shown by the natives of Malta after a disastrous shipwreck and Paul’s miraculous survival of a viper bite. Upon reaching Rome, Paul was permitted to live in his own rented house under guard, where he spent two years boldly preaching the gospel to all who visited him, demonstrating that his "chains are in Christ" for the furtherance of the gospel.
