DAY 36: Paul Wrote

REWIND: Paul was an enemy of the early church. In fact, he hunted Christians down so they could be put on trial. Some were even killed. Paul came to believe in Jesus, and the direction of his life completely changed. He became one of the first missionaries and took the good news of Jesus to foreign lands. He started churches in far-off cities like Ephesus, Philippi, Corinth, and even Rome. After Paul left each city, he kept in touch with the churches by writing letters. In his letters, Paul reminded the early Christians of the grace they had received through faith and the truth to be found in Jesus.

READ: Romans 6
