Preaching and Proclaiming God's Kingdom Ephesus was an ancient Greek city known as a center of religious activity, filled with many pagan shrines and temples. The city contained the historic Temple of the Goddess Artemis - one of the seven ancient wonders of the world. It was here that St. Paul spent over two years teaching, preaching and proclaiming the Kingdom of God to both Jews and Gentiles. The numerous converts made and the astonishing miracles performed were visible fruits of Paul's intense apostolic efforts. The Gospel obviously took root and Christianity literally exploded.
