Enjoy a "baker's dozen" videos to introduce our June 2022 Tour.
#1 The first one is on Oberammergau, Bavaria. Almost four centuries ago the villagers asked God to spare their town from the horrific black plague that was decimating Europe. In 1633, begging
God to spare their town from further fatalities, they vowed to perform, in
gratitude, a play of the final week of Jesus' life. No more deaths occurred! Every 10 years since 1633, villagers have produced what has become the defining Passion Play in the world! Good tickets for the production, flight
to Munich and 2 overnights in the area
are part of our 11-day "Footsteps of Jesus and More" tour.
It's the opportunity of a lifetime!
#2 CBN News produced a
series reviewing a few sites
in Biblical Israel. Enjoy this
preview "from the comfort
comfort of your home."
I think their 2 best segments
are this one, featuring the
"Galilee" ...then the one
below, taking you to the
newly-excavated site of...
#3 ..."Magdala", home
of one of Jesus' most faithful
and famous disciples, Mary
of Magdala, (Magdalene).

#4 With kind permission from
"The Hoppers" to use their
powerful song "Jerusalem", this
video by my friend John Samples, gives gives you a glimpse of our
Israel tour experience.
Contact us now about our tour to
to the HolyLand in March, 2024!
#5 An Israel overview featuring many of the sites and scenes we experience.
Enjoy this vocal by Amick Byram.
Here are some of the lyrics...
"Ancient city walls,
Rich and fertile fields.
A place of past and present,
Where history is revealed.
Walk the paths of old,
A land beyond compare,
The shofar sounds the call
For people everywhere.
Israel, Israel, Eternal land of promise
Desire of my heart
Israel, Israel, a land that's like no other
Let all the earth proclaim.
That when you stand on Holy Ground
You'll never be the same."
#5 We provide a trip-specific packing list for our passengers, but you may enjoy this from a ladies' perspective. Susan Wright does a great job explaining "what to pack.."
Our tour in 2022 is in the warmer months as when she traveled there. You will want a light jacket for early mornings, and for the Passion Play evening.
#6 These pictures of Galilee show the beauty of this northern region of Israel. The Galilee was where Jesus based most of his 3 1/2 year ministry. This is the focus of the first portion of our tour. We often see abundant crops in the upper Galilee. In may ways, Israel is the "breadbasket" of Europe for vegetables and fruits.
#7 This worship song simply reminds me of how awesome God truly is. Indeed,
How Great is Our God."
As the name and presence of God resided in Jerusalem in Bible days, His greatness is displayed in our lives as His followers wherever we are - and in a special way, wherever we turn in Israel.
Enjoy this song from Jerusalem in lyrical Hebrew and English. "Gadol Adonai" = How Great is our God!
#7 This professional video by Imagine Tours and Travel gives an overview of the major areas we'll be visiting. Enjoy the beauty and experiences of the Land. They'll be your experiences too!
#8 One pilgrim's amateur video of his tour to Israel with his Preacher, and Imagine Tours. Fasten your seat belt for the fast pace, and his personal commentary along the way! Our pace will be a bit more relaxed. :)
#9 An overview of the Galilee region & Jerusalem, professionally produced by my friend John DeLancey. Enjoy a seventeen minute, intriguing look at places where Jesus walked during His ministry. We will visit many of these places on our upcoming tour. Thanks John for this great presentation.
#10 A slideshow of a Minister's trip to Israel that I led one January, prepared for our church family one evening. Turn up your volume first. With permission from "The Hoppers" you'll also enjoy the song 'Jerusalem!' Maybe you'll also see some familiar faces.You'll certainly enjoy visiting these places, as we all did!

#6 For every trip we provide a trip-specific packing list for our travelers. Pay close attention to it. And, enjoy this entertaining, fast-paced packing video. Even though our trip is in summer, you and will want a light jacket for mornings and the evening portion of the Passion Play. I hope you enjoy this "What to Pack?" video.
#7 This slideshow takes you to sites in northern Israel. Based on Galilee prophecies about Jesus you'll enjoy scenes from the past and present - where Jesus ministered, places we visit "in Galilee by the sea."
#8 Let's worship for a few moments with "How Great is Our God" in beautiful Hebrew and English.
"Gadol Elohai" = '"Great is Our God."
#9 Enjoy this "Biblical Tour of Israel" professionally produced by our travel partners, "Imagine Tours and Travel".
#10 A young man shoots some great footage from his high-energy trip to Israel. A fast & fun 15 minutes of one person's memories. Interesting to recognize places and experiences. Their travel company is the same as ours, Imagine Tours and Travel.
#11 Produced by my friend Dr. John Delancey, this novel approach helps put on your sandals to walk together, with us "in the footsteps of Jesus."
#12 The IMAX movie "Jerusalem" was featured across North America several years ago, including in Indianapolis where I saw it. While the huge-screen film is great, being in Israel in-person is truly amazing. Touching those ancient stones, walking the paths where the prophets, apostles and Jesus Himself walked - is incomparable to any other trip you've taken. Click the full-screen arrows to enjoy this brief intro "Jerusalem," IMAX style!
