Filled with new understanding, he became a tireless preacher of Jesus Christ and turned the world upside down through his powerful teaching.Paul was a restless dynamo. Travelling far and wide by land and sea he preached, argued and convinced, often in the face of violent opposition. He formed new congregations wherever he went or strengthened existing ones. Everywhere, in towns and cities across the empire, Paul showed his great concern for every member - or potential member - of the fast-growing body of believers who were soon called Christians.Upside Down with Paul presents Paul's story, combining parts of his letters with the framework of Acts, interleaving it with the text of the Berean Literal Bible and many short sketches - fictional glimpses of Paul's life and work.This is the life of Paul in a way you've never seen it before.
