After his dramatic conversion on the road to Damascus, Paul the Apostle spread the Christian faith untiringly throughout the Roman Empire, preaching mainly in synagogues, that Jesus was the Son of God. The present-day pilgrim can follow Paul on his missionary journeys, and also on his final journey to Rome to be tried for his life before the Emperor Nero, where he established new Christian communities and brought support to existing ones. “I want you to be aware, Brothers, that the gospel proclaimed by me was not a gospel according to man, nor did I receive it from any man, but it came to me through a revelation of Jesus Christ.” Galatians 1:11 – 12.
