Take a look at Athens from the sky In this Cinematic Aerial Film. Athens, the capital of Greece, was central to the powerful civilization of Ancient Greece. The city still features 5th-century BC landmarks, such as the Acropolis; a hilltop citadel topped with ancient buildings like the colonnaded Parthenon temple. Paul didn’t choose easy places to minister and he made his way to Athens, a centre of commerce and philosophy. Here Paul met with the locals and on Mars Hill, just across from the Acropolis he would have spoken to some of the brightest minds in his day. It wasn’t easy but Paul use of tact, skill and patience gives us an example to use today in our witness and ministry.
