How to play
- The map opens with the whole route faint and the road already travelled bright.
- At each city, read what happened there and answer one question about it.
- Right or wrong, the answer is shown as it happened, and a fact about the place opens.
- Travel on. The route brightens behind you and the next city is ringed.
- At the journey's end, read the closing word and carry it.
A session, start to finish
The map is the whole screen: parchment, a dotted route, the next harbour ringed. Read the scene at Antioch, answer, travel on. Cyprus, then the long walk inland to Pisidian Antioch, Iconium, Lystra where they stoned Paul, Derbe, and home the way they came. A full journey takes about six minutes, and most people finish it knowing for the first time how much of Acts happened on foot.
The Scripture it stands on
As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them. And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.
Acts 13:2-3, King James Version
What it forms in you
A sense of place for the book of Acts, so that Antioch, Cyprus, Lystra and Derbe are roads and harbours, not just names. History becomes geography, and geography becomes gratitude.
Who it is for
Readers of Acts, students, teachers who want a map that teaches, and anyone who has wondered how far the first missionaries actually walked.
A reflection
They were sent by a praying church and came home to report what God had done. Where has the road of the Gospel reached you, and by whose feet?
Questions people ask
Which journey does it cover?
Paul's first missionary journey from Antioch through Cyprus and Galatia and home, city by city.
Is the map real?
The cities and their order are the real route from Acts 13 and 14, drawn on a stylised parchment.
Do wrong answers matter?
The journey continues either way; the correct account is shown and a fact about the place opens so every stop teaches.
