After all this went down, Paul felt called in his spirit to travel through Macedonia and Achaia on his way to Jerusalem. He was like, 'Once I'm done there, I absolutely have to get to Rome too.'

Right after Paul had that vision, we immediately started making plans to head to Macedonia. We were completely sure that God was calling us to go share the good news with the people there.

He stayed there for three months. But when he was getting ready to sail to Syria, he found out some people were planning to ambush him, so he decided to take a different route back through Macedonia instead.
