Abenteuer mit Paulus

Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one receives the prize? Everyone who competes exercises self-control in all things to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable one. Thus writes Paul after his long journey through almost all the provinces of the Roman Empire to the church in Corinth. He knows the arena well. Here he had to face wild beasts as a prisoner. His true adventure is faith, which leads to all others: Paul falls among robbers, suffers shipwreck, is arrested multiple times, tortured - and meets Lydia. In Athens, he encounters Seneca, who is akin to him with his Stoic teachings. But even the influential philosopher cannot change Nero's attitude towards Christians in Rome. Paul is executed.
