The Christian Faith owes a great deal to sailors on the seas. Although Jesus himself confined his seafaring to the Lake of Galilee, which was only twelve miles long and seven miles wide, Jesus' followers were far more venturesome in their seafaring exploits. And if Jesus and the twelve apostles centered their work largely in the small villages and towns and agrarian communities of Palestine, Jesus' later disciples made their way across the Great Sea, the Mediterranean, to visit the leading cities of the first century Graeco--Roman world.
