About Israel Study Tour

Dear Rocky Peak,

Next spring (2022), I will be leading our next study tour to Israel. This will be our eighth tour we have led in the past six years and these trips have truly been life changing for those who have gone! The early church father, Jerome, once described Israel as “the fifth gospel,” and once you’ve been there, you’ll know why, and you’ll never read your Bible the same way!

Over twenty-five years ago, Lin and I went on our first two tours of Israel, but after those experiences, I wanted to design a tour that was more adventurous, closer to the land, more authentic, and one that led to greater life change. These trips we’ve taken to Israel over the last six years are the fulfillment of that dream!

They combine pre-trip learning with on-site adventures, keep us closer to the unspoiled land, and farther from gaudy churches and tourist traps. We go places most tours do not go, and we see things most tours do not see. These trips do require a fair amount of hiking, so we can experience the land–the mountains, valleys, rivers, seas, and deserts of Israel.

The cost of the trip is all inclusive—round trip airfare, all hotels, meals, taxes, and tips. It even includes bottled water while we are out touring and some other extras. And we always limit our trips to one bus (about 55 people) so we can get in and out of sites quickly, so space is limited!

Our next trip is March 20-31, 2022. Sign-ups usually begin about ten months before the tour date. That is when our tour company can book the flights and confirm the prices. We will let you know when signups open this year.

I hope you can join us on our next tour!

In Him,
Pastor Michael
