The Temple of Apollo, 6th cent. BCE
CORINTH BIBLE TOUR
We will depart from Athens early in the morning and drive for about 1.5 hours until we arrive to Corinth.
After a short stop at the Corinth Canal, we will proceed to the archeological site of Ancient Corinth and the castle of Acrocorinth. There, we will explore sites that are related to the history of the 1st-century congregation, like the temple of Apollo and the Bema or Judgement Seat (Acts 18:12) along with the challenges they faced, such as immorality, persecution, and conscience issues (Acts 18:1-17, I Cor. 6:15-20, 10:23-33). Finally, we will end our tour with lunch at a traditional restaurant near the ancient harbor of Cenchreae (Acts 18:18).
Duration: 8 hours.
