St. Paul

Once a vicious persecutor of Christians, Paul was thrown from his horse and blinded as God commanded him to change. Paul became the Apostle to the Gentiles, travelling across cities, deserts and oceans to preach the Gospel, and writing eloquent letters to Christian communities. He was persecuted, imprisoned and eventually beheaded. Some say that, in all of history, no one has spread any message as well as Saint Paul.
