Paul wrote to the Romans some years before Acts 27. At the beginning of Romans, he requested their prayers for a prosperous journey to them. His journey began in Acts 21, went through a few years of persecution, and continued on a ship in this reading—and then the ship sank! But all the while, Paul was prospering as a Christian, using every opportunity to tell the good news of Jesus. And his leadership in the ship led to the conclusion that not one person died when it went down.
