THE HOLY LAND: Follow The Steps of Jesus

 The Holy Land is a unique and beautiful land, rich with a variety of historical, archaeological, and religious sites. Visitors like my wife and I, are charmed by its sweeping vistas, hospitable citizens and inspirational images. Israel is an enchanting mixture of ancient and modern.



The biblical history that little land reveals lies buried beneath the millennial of settlers and citizens who have called it home. In many places you can simply open the Bible and read about the sights you see. In the Holy Land you can experience the special thrill of walking in the footsteps of Bible characters.
Abraham roamed these hills four thousand years ago. About three thousand years have gone by since King David reigned here. But for Christians, Follow the steps of Jesus in the Holy Land constitute its ultimate moment. Especially Via Dolorosa (The way of the cross), Golgotha (Calvary) etc.
In these regions Jesus, the Son of God, was born. Here he grew in wisdom and stature. Here he was crucified. Here God raised him from dead.
The link below will show you tips and share some of the experience the land of promise holds in this beautiful slideshow.
