Peter and Paul traveled thousands of miles on their missionary journeys, preaching the word of God in Italy, Greece, Turkey, Israel, and beyond. With Maranatha Tours, you can follow in the path of these great missionaries on a spiritual journey of your own!

"I must see Rome" (Acts 19:21)

So many sites of Peter and Paul's missionary journeys are found in Italy. The theater imagery and meat market arguments of 1 Corinthians will be brought to life at Pompeii, the city frozen in time about a decade after Paul's death. In fact, most of what Bible scholars understand about the Roman world of the New Testament is based on discoveries found within a day's drive of Rome.

 

"Paul then stood up in the meeting of the Areopagus and said: People of Athens! I see that in every way you are very religious" (Acts 17:22)

This journey will provide you a deeper understanding of the Bible and a closer understanding of the life and experiences of the great missionary Paul. When you make this journey in the company of friends and others of like mind, you can look forward to an unforgettable experience. Picture yourself in biblical cities you’ve always read about like Athens, Corinth, Thessalonica, Philippi, Berea and more.

 

"What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches" (Revelation 1:11)

Did you know that there are more biblical sites in Turkey (also known as the "second Holy Land") than in any other country? On this trip, not only will you visit the site of each of the Seven Churches, but you'll also visit actual places that the New Testament letters were penned and received. Imagine being in Ephesus, site of so many teachings that establish our salvation.

 

"Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem" (Psalm 122:2)

This journey will provide you a deeper understanding of scriptures traveling through the lands of the Bible. You will get an up close and personal look at the life of Jesus Christ and His mission of redemption. Picture yourself sailing in a boat like the disciples on the Sea of Galilee, floating in the Dead Sea, seeing our Lord Jesus's birthplace in Bethlehem, walking the streets of Jerusalem, and having communion at the empty tomb where Jesus rose from the dead.

 

At the end of any of these spiritual tours, two things will most certainly be changed: you, and your understanding of the Bible. Book your Bible tour now!
