Third Missionary Trip

Acts 18:23-28;19-21
AD 53-57
Paul spent the year 53-57 in
Ephesus.
When Paul started his third
missionary trip, the city in his mind was Ephesus and that was the main aim of
his third trip. On the way to Ephesus, he revisited some of the cities of
Galacia and travelled to Ephesus where he worked 2 and half years. His
missionary work in Ephesus ended with the Silversmith Riot which forced Paul
to leave. Planning to go to Macedonia, Paul stopped at Troas where he possibly
spent few months of winter till he got the suitable weather for safe journey
for northern Greece. Paul and his companions continued their journey to
Macedonia where they spent nearly 18 then mouths in the Greece. Because of
several attempts of murder, Paul didn't have a ship from Corint but returned
to Troas where he had his miracle related to young boy who fell from the
window of s Roman House. Instead of taking the boat with his friends, he
preferred walking 20 miles over the mountains to Assos. After Assos, Paul's
boat stops the some Egean islands such as Mitytline, Chios and Samos. Paul's
boat stopped in Miletos where he met the elders of the Ephesian Church. It was
a touching ceremony in the Lion Harbour of Ephesus. Everyone cried. They all
knew they wouldn't see each other after this meeting. Paul, after staying 3
days, he left for Holy Lands.
