Ερείπια Εφέσου

Weathered stone walls, broken columns, and a marble walkway lead upward through the ancient ruins of Ephesus in Turkey. The worn steps and surviving masonry evoke the world of the early Christian church, where the gospel took root amid one of the great cities of the Roman world.

Ephesus is closely associated with the ministry of Paul, who taught there for an extended season, and with the message to the church in Revelation. The site speaks to perseverance, repentance, and faithful witness in a public place shaped by commerce, religion, and empire. This setting is especially useful for teaching on the Book of Acts, the Epistle to the Ephesians, early church history, biblical archaeology, and the seven churches of Revelation.
