Back From Israel!

Shalom,

My wife and I are now back from Israel. It was an excellent, inspiring trip as we traced the route our ancestors traveled from Egypt to the Promised land.

Several things struck me as we traveled: from how difficult the terrain was on the way to the promised land (not smooth desert as many imagine, but hills, rocky soil, and barren expanses), how lush the vegetation was in the Galilee region (truly a land flowing with milk and honey), and most of all, the pervasive sense of being home.

Over the next several weeks, we will be posting pictures and short video clips of our travels. For those who prayed for safe passage, and safety for our family while we were gone, you have our sincere thanks.

Blessings in Messiah
