<p>We last left our hero Paul and company safe &nbsp;after a shipwreck and they discover they’re on the island of Malta. &nbsp;Paul’s mission to convert both Gentiles and Jews into Christians doesn’t &nbsp;stop. He is not deterred. He keeps going no matter what. Can we say &nbsp;that about ourselves?</p> <p>This is also the chapter that inspired me to write <a href="https://giselleaguiar.com/about_the_novel-2/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">my novel</a>. &nbsp;I will go into more detail in the next post.
