Powerful Address to Athens

By: Gabriela Yareliz This is one of my favorite speeches and discourses ever given. It was Paul’s address to the men of Athens. It is an address to men of education, skepticism, spirituality and philosophy everywhere. It is poetic, deep, powerful and most of all, truthful.
