RESTORING SHALOM. Well, it’s our last day in the field and it has been an absolutely incredible day! We began in Priene, an important location to show us the waters the Romans were swimming in. One of the earliest temples in Rome is here and it was one of Alexander the Great’s favorites....

RESTORING EYES TO SEE. What. A. Day. Our team did a wonderful job with a full day today! We began at the Attalia (Antalya) Harbor where Paul, John Mark, and Barnabas sailed out on Paul’s first missionary journey. It was the perfect place to sit and more fully understand who Paul was...

WE ALL MADE IT TO TÜRKIYE!! And when I say “all,” I do mean all of us made it! Those whose flights were delayed, those who were coming in from a different country, those who didn’t think they would make their connecting flight—we all made it (thank you Jesus!)....
