Join Harvest Bible Chapel on a trip to Israel on June 3–14, 2026.
Join friends from Harvest Bible Chapel for this amazing tour of Israel! Immerse yourself in the sights, culture, and breathtaking landscapes of the Holy Land!
Together, explore the Land from Dan to Beersheva with an emphasis on discovering our biblical heritage on location. You will see the Scripture come alive from Genesis and the Prophets, to the Gospels, Acts, and Revelation. Your time in the Land will enrich your walk with the Lord Jesus and transform your Bible maps from lines on a page to experiential geography as you encounter the Messiah Jesus in His land.
Seize this unique moment to expand your Bible knowledge and deepen your faith on location. You’ll hike Tel Dan the source of the Jordan, “sail” on the waters of the Sea of Galilee, walk atop Mount Megiddo (Armageddon), hike to the waterfalls at Ein Gedi where David hid from Saul, enjoy spa time at the Dead Sea, splash through Hezekiah’s tunnel, learn the Scriptures in Jesus’ synagogue of Capernaum, pray at the Western Wall, and most importantly celebrate the Resurrection of the Messiah Jesus in Jerusalem.
Join Dr. Michael Rydelnik and Dr. Mike Vanlaningham on this journey to where the key events of the Bible actually occurred. Come to understand the Lord’s work in the land of Israel and the challenges faced by Israelis among her neighbors. Explore your spiritual heritage and deepen your walk with the Lord as you pray, sing, worship, study, laugh, and learn in “His Holy Land” (Psalm 78:54).
