A:The missionary trips are in Acts of the Apostles only. Paul's own epistles never mention, and actually preclude, the three missionary trips described in the later book.
David Livingstone was a missionary so he went to Africa to spread the gospel to the people of Africa.
Raymond E. Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) says that the three missionary journeys are only a convenient classification developed by students of Acts. They frequently contradict Paul's itinerary as described in his own epistles and to that extent are unlikely to be based on fact.

FourHe made 4 because he went to rome and sapin and then back to rome so I would include that as his 4rth journey.
In his undisputed letters Paul gives us no information about the first missionary journey and only sparse and contradictory information about the second and third missionary journeys described in Acts of the Apostles. In fact, Raymond E. Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) says the the three journeys are only a convenient classification developed by students of Acts. Apart from the total lack of first hand evidence for the first journey, doubt has been raised about other aspects of the itinerary.According to Acts:First missionary journey:Antioch, Seleucia, Salamis, Cyprus, South Galatia, Antioch, Jerusalem.Second missionary journey:Syria and Cilicia, South Galatia, Phrygia and North Galatia, Mysia and Troas, Philippi, Amphipolis, Apollonia, Thessalonia, Beroea, Athens, Corinth, Cenchreae, Ephesus, Caesarea Maritima, Jerusalem.Third missionary journey:North Galatia and Phrygia, Ephesus, Macedonia, Achaia, Macedonia and Philippi, Troas, Miletus, Tyre, Ptolemais, Caesarea, Jerusalem.
AnswerThe three journeys in Acts of the Apostles are only a convenient classification developed by students of Acts. In his letters Paul gives no information that supports the historicity of Acts' first missionary journey, and the other two are called into serious doubt by scholars who doubt the historicity of Acts. According to Acts, Paul's imprisonment and miraculous escape occur during the second journey. Paul himself talks of his various travels, but does not group them into any clearly defined missionary journeys, in the style of Acts, which focuses on having Paul return to a location where he can be in communication with his superiors. He does talk of being imprisoned, but it is unclear at what point this occurs. We can not really be sure when he was imprisoned.
Paul, originally called Saul, was a religious leader at the time of the early church, and he hated the new Christians, (or followers of The Way, as they were called at the time). After Stephen was martyred (Acts 7:54-8:1), Saul approved. He soon began to persecute the Christians. In Acts 9, he was riding to the town of Damascus to kill christians, when Jesus appeared to him on the road in bright light, knocked him off his horse, and blinded him for three days. God sent a man called Ananias to go to Saul and teach him the Gospel. Saul (or now Paul) was converted, and felt convicted to begin preaching the gospel. Days after he first believed, he already gave his first sermon, and followed God's call to plant churches in the area ever since.
In one of his earliest epistles, the Epistle to the Galatians, Paul said that after his conversion, he travelled to Arabia, then Damascus (bypassing Jerusalem), Jerusalem, then Syria and Cilicia, and back to Jerusalem. He spent 3 years in Damascus, 14 years in Syria and Cilicia, and indeterminate periods in the other centres.
Paul's missionary work expanded Christianity through out the Roman Empire. Many Gentiles and Jews were brought into faith with Jesus Christ as Savior. Even today almost 2000 years later Paul's missionary work and his letters to the churches have a profound effect in bringing many people to the Lord Jesus Christ. Paul was used mightily by God.
A:The three missionary journeys of Paul are to be found in Acts of the Apostles only. There is no mention of the journeys in Paul's own epistles, which contain many puzzling anomalies against the account in Acts. In fact, some who challenge the historicity of Acts dismiss the account of Paul's sea journey in Acts 27:1-28:14 as novelistic fiction. Acts 13:1-21:26 mentions:1- Cyprus, Asia Minor, Antioch, Iconium, Lystra2- Asia Minor, Macedonia,Greece, Philippi, Thessalonica, Beroea, Athens,Corinth3- Asia Minor, Greece, Ephesus
