Join Kay Arthur and the Precept Ministries International teaching staff for an epic journey into the land of the Book that will change your life forever.
Deepen your walk with God by walking the paths of the prophets, our Lord Jesus and the Apostles. Study God’s Word in the lands where it was written and grow in your understanding and appreciation of its glorious truth. Find a richer passion for Israel by seeing the places where biblical events actually happened, and get ready for a spiritual experience you will never forget!
When you visit Israel, you will never be the same. When you study the Word of God, your life will be transformed.
Experience the Garden of Gethsemane. Cross the Sea of Galilee. Study the Book of Revelation at Megiddo—the biblical site for Armageddon. For the Christian, those places are already so much more than places on a map. For the Christian on an inductive study tour with Precept, these locations open windows into our understanding biblical context. They connect us in a tangible way to our God and His pursuit of His people.
Join us—but get ready. When you study God’s Word in the very places where the Bible happened, your Bible study and your life will never be the same. The Israel Study Tour 2010 is an interactive Precept Inductive Bible Study event which features the Precept Inductive Bible Study Method. Discover Truth for Yourself.
