Paul the Apostle undertook multiple missionary journeys across the Roman Empire to spread Christianity, establish churches, and strengthen the faith of early Christians.
Paul's second missionary journey, accompanied by Silas and later joined by Timothy and Luke, expanded his mission into Europe for the first time. It took him from Antioch in Syria through Asia Minor into Macedonia and Greece, where he founded churches in key cities such as Philippi, Thessalonica, Corinth, and Ephesus.
