The Shipwreck Made Simple

Paul's storm-tossed voyage to Rome (Acts 27) -- fourteen days of darkness, an angel in the night, and the promise that God wastes no wreck; every soul aboard is brought safely through.

The Shipwreck Made Simple is a Bible-first walk through Acts 27-28: the prisoner and the promise, the warning nobody wanted, the tempest named Euroclydon, fourteen days with neither sun nor stars, the angel's "Fear not, Paul," the stand-up-and-take-heart faith that steadied 276 souls, the lifeboat cut loose, bread broken with thanksgiving on a doomed ship, broken pieces carrying every soul to the shore of Malta, the viper shaken off into the fire, and chains in Rome that could not chain the gospel.

Explicitly Trinitarian: God the Father who planned the voyage, Jesus Christ -- Son of God and Son of Man, Lord and Savior -- who stood by Paul in the night, and the Holy Spirit who alone gives courage, conviction, deliverance, and freedom. Every prayer is to the Father, through Jesus Christ, by the Holy Spirit.

Read one chapter a day. Come honest. Read slowly. Fear not.
