Top: The massive Roman Empire during the
time of the New Testament covered much of
Europe, all of North Africa’s coastal areas,
what we know as Turkey, and the Middle
East.
Left: Each region inside the Roman Empire
kept names it had already known. So when
Paul writes a letter to the “Galatians,” he was
writing to the new Christians he’d met in
communities like Antioch of Pisidia, Iconium,
Lystra and Derbe, in what we know today as
central Turkey. And when Paul heard the
“Macedonian” call, he was being led to take
the message of Christ to Greece.
