Why Visit Israel
God calls Israel “the apple of His eyes”. Israel is God’s chosen nation as mentioned in Deuteronomy 14:2. God had promised Abraham that his descendants would become a great nation as said in Genesis 17:7.
The Bible will vividly come to life. The land and people, sights, sounds and smells will forever influence you. These encounters will shape the way you understand and read the Bible.
This is where Jesus lived and ministered. It is a spiritual adventure of a lifetime to trace the footsteps of Jesus where He walked and lived, where He taught multitudes, performed miracles and cast out demons, where He died, where He rose again and where He’s coming back!
Israel has a diverse landscape. From forested highlands and fertile green valleys to mountainous deserts, and from the coastal plain to the semitropical Jordan Valley and the Dead Sea, the lowest point on earth, Israel has literally got it all!
