This week I am on a short trip in Turkey, visiting many of the typical sites you might expect in Istanbul. I am obviously looking forward to Ephesus, but our short tour is packed. Usually these kind of tours overplay the “seven cities of Revelation” angle, but the group seems more interested in the Pauline studies aspect of these sites. Our guide Mark Wilson has an excellent article in the most recent Tyndale Bulletin on Paul’s second missionary journey, so I am expecting great things over the next few days.
I will try to post a few notes and pictures as I have the chance. I am relying on the WordPress app on my iPad, hopefully that works out okay.
I plan to return to the Second Temple period series next week.

God bless your travels 🙏
I have to get in on one of these trips of yours…!
You are in the best of hands with Mark Wilson!
We were in turkey for a month in 1997. Best hospitality we ever experienced. Hope it is that way for you also.
We had a great time, every place we visited was friendly and safe.
