It’s 12:05 on Monday, September 20. We just boarded our ferry which will take us to the Island of Aegina. We spent the last two days in Athens and were able to visit Mars Hill and see where Paul reasoned and talk to the philosophers of his day presenting Christ as the unknown God that they were seeking to find. Once again we are amazed at how filthy the city is and full of graffiti and trash. When you look at all the evilness around I wonder what Paul was thinking when he walked into the city of Athens. From my perspective it seems hopeless, and yet Paul took the opportunity to reason in the synagogue and then to go to Mars Hill and talk to the philosophers. Other than that we had a relaxing time and ended of course with ice cream.
