June 9–16, 2025 Embark on a Unique Pilgrimage through the Mediterranean

Dear Friends,

The Apostle Paul has long been one of the heroes of the faith for me. He is truly the greatest missionary and evangelist who ever lived.

Consider that he traveled more than 10,000 miles throughout his missionary journeys to spread the Good News of the Gospel. Now imagine embarking on a journey along the stunningly beautiful Mediterranean Sea to Greece, Turkey and Italy as you follow in his footsteps. Imagine taking in the beauty of God’s creation just as Paul did … and meditating on God’s Word just as Paul did. Sounds magnificent, doesn’t it? 

It’s been several years since I last led a Journeys of Paul trip, and I can’t tell you how excited I am to make the journey with you on June 9–16, 2025!

On this Royal Caribbean Cruise, we will depart from Athens, with a final destination of Rome. We’ll make our way to the picturesque cities of Ephesus, Mykonos, Santorini, Sicily, Naples and Capri. Throughout the cruise, I’ll bring relevant messages at every location, and we will experience powerful moments of worship and fellowship.

Above all, through our immersive Bible studies against the backdrop of such a gorgeous and historic setting, we will seek to draw closer to our Creator. 

I pray you will consider joining me on this Journeys of Paul cruise. I promise it will be an adventure that will remain in your memories forever.

In Christ Alone,
Jack Graham
