Today marked our last day in Rome, as well as the last day on “The Footsteps of Paul” tour. It is bittersweet to know the trip is over; but it is safe to say that we are all tired, both mentally and physically. The day was full of amazing sites as we took tours of the Sistine Chapel, St....

As we toured the city of Rome today we were overwhelmed with the beauty, architecture, and historical significance of the sites. On our way to the Colosseum we passed 2 marble columns that stand as a memorial to 9/11 where the Italians remember this event each year. What an honor to think that our Italian...

What made this site extra special was sitting in the theater where Paul was brought in Act 19. His gospel...

We started our day with a devotion on the bus about the city of Philadelphia, Brad challenged us “God is the only thing that is eternal and our circumstances will come and go”...this is the greatest gift we could give anyone. Hierapolis reminded us of home! 😉 It was really foggy so...

Pergamum tour, Thyratira lesson, and Sardis visit. Brad Josh and Mike did a great job painting portraits of the history of each site and how it was relevant during the days of and shortly after Christ’s death and resurrection. There are so many things the scripture refers to specifically about...
