Galatians 1:1-5
Key Verse: 1:3                    

“Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.”

For about 30 years from the time of his conversion to his Roman imprisonment, the Apostle Paul made 3 famous missionary journeys where he taught the Bible, preached the gospel of Christ, and planted churches wherever he went.
