This is the Valley of Jezreal. This is where Revelation says that the battle will take place. The picture doesn't do justice for what a breathtaking site this truly is.


This was Ali and I playing the Titanic as we traveled the Sea of Galilee! 


This is me monkeying around in Philippi Ceseara (different than Philippi as in the Philippians) 

These were toilets in Bet She'an

Ruin play. 

Boo. 

This is the Jordan River... with Jordan behind me. 

Best MOM in the world! HAPPY MOTHERS DAY from Jerusalem! I'm on top of the Mt of Olives! 

The Garden of Gethsemane. Absolutely life changing. 

King Hezzekiah's Tunnel. This was really cool! You should read up on it if you haven't! What an experience! 

This was the church in Jerusalem. This would have been what Jesus' parents left from when they lost him. Honestly, that story never made sense to me until I was here. 

The wailing wall of Jerusalem. I must say, I am thankful that I serve a living God who gives us LIVING hope as 1 Peter says. This wall is nothing more than a wall. 

Just a little ride at sea level. No big deal. As you can see it was a wild ride... he was even sitting down. 

This is Acropolis! Top of Athens! 

Parthenon. 


This is Ephesus. Really cool, very well kept ancient city. Brought new context and revelation to Paul's words. 

Okay - look close at this... this is in Ephesus. See in the top right corner, there is a human heart, and below that a sad character of a girl, and then a left foot? In ancient Ephesus this was the marketing sign for a brothel - means if you want love from a girl it is on the left side. If you looked down the street, you could see the ruins of where a brothel used to be. Sorry for the shadow! 

Oh - a little turkish coffee in TURKEY! mmmm, MMMM, mmm - so good! 

He was so excited to take a photo with me. Don't be fooled. 



That is all I have for now! These were a pain to get up, and actually weren't even the original ones that I chose - but everything is in Greek and I am trying to navigate this, but it just isn't working - so, this is what you get! :) Blessings friends - hope you are all being stretched and challenged. Love you all.
