We will start out from Athens, visiting Corinth, Thessaloniki, Berea, Neapolis, Philippi, Istanbul, Pergamum, Ephesus, the Island of Patmos where St. John wrote the Book of Revelation and more.
When I was teaching my series on Acts of the Apostles (see the audio CDs here) I decided to make this Timeline for my own use, to help me keep his life, his journeys and writings all sorted out.
See what Fr. Larry Richards had to say about our cruise!

Hi Steve,
Your Pauline timeline is very interesting and useful, but I am confused at least a little about one aspect. Is the arrow above the words “The end of Acts” meant to apply to that text (as seems most likely) or for the adjacent text “AD 70: …”. If it is, as seems likely, for the end of Acts, perhaps it would be more immediately clear if there were an arrow toward the right from “AD 70:”?
The arrow points to the blue line which is about the time Acts would have been written or when Paul was in prison in Rome about 62 AD. Luke must have written it shortly thereafter and before the destruction of the Temple. So the blue line basically indicates the end of the story told in the Acts of the Apostles.
