PAULUS THE SHIPWRECK 60AD

This book, narrating the discovery of an ancient lead anchor stock embossed with the names of the Egyptian gods ISIS and SARAPI(S) in the seabed off Salina Bay on a Sunday morning in April, 2005, is also the story of the search for the real site of St Paul’s shipwreck in Malta. In the process the author surprises us with a novelistic but accurate account of the storm, shipwreck and landing of St Paul in Malta, as set out in chapters 27 and 28 of the Acts of the Apostles.

But Mark Gatt’s own investigations on the site of Apostle Paul’s shipwreck is also his own quest for the spiritual message of salvation in St Paul’s life and teaching embodied in the real ‘anchor’ of Christ Jesus.
