With Patrick Boyns.

Recorded on location at the Palace of Diocletian in Croatia.

From Jerusalem to Illyricum … this was the geographic extent of Paul’s mission activity. And though we know nothing in particular of what he did in these parts, we know that Christ was working through him to bring salvation to those lost in this life.

I am actually in the city of Split – an ancient Roman city made particularly famous for its associations with the emperor Diocletian. He ruled at the end of the third century A.D. and instigated the last and most brutal persecutions of followers of Christ within the empire.

It is not unusual for those who choose to live lives apart from the ways of the world to be shunned and even hounded today. But there are times when such rejection reaches extraordinarily extreme levels, And such was the time of the Roman Emperor, Diocletian.
