Mark made up the missionary party

witness throughout that island,

But regaining consciousness he went
back into the city and the hext
day went on twenty miles eastward
to Derbe, the farthest point reached
on this first journey. Thence, de-
spite the perils, they retraeed the
entire journey through Asia Minor
after which they sailed back to the

His Second Missionary Journey
After the lapse of five or six years
Paul began his second journey, re-
tracing much or the ground covered
in the first, but going for beyond to
carry the gospel into Europe for new
triumphs in Philippi, Thessalonica,
Athens and Corinth.
Considering the difficulties Of
travel in Paul's day. the natural
