BibleTelling Seminar in Israel
These seminars are 14-day, life-changing, experiences in the land of the Bible. Over 100 Bible events happened at the sites we will visit. Skilled teachers will explain the customs of Bible times and you will hear the Biblical stories told as you are immersed in the sites, sounds, smells, and feel of each location. You will go home with a new love for Scripture, and a better understanding of Biblical events.
Things to consider to determine if this is the tour for you
• As a seminar, it is more intense than a regular Holy Land tour
• Our daily schedule is long—we go places many tourists don’t
• We average 9,000 steps a day while we are in Israel. (Start a walking regimen several weeks before the seminar.)
• Everyone attending the seminar will learn and tell two or more Bible stories
Preparation work is required • Read or listen to “All the Stories of the Bible”• Watch preparation videos• Practice telling your stories (five times each)
Expenses not covered by the cost of the tour • Airfare to and from Israel• Activities on the “free day”• Drinks cost extra at some of the meals• There is a charge for using restrooms at some of
the sites• Travel insurance covers more than the cost of the
trip. It also covers emergency medical, emergency dental, emergency medical transportation, lost/damaged baggage, travel delay, baggage delay, missed connections, and travel accidents. Cost of insurance differs according to the person’s age and the amount of coverage.
Cultural exchange Saturday evening during the seminar is a “cultural exchange” evening. Seminar participants, in groups of three or four, will enjoy evening meals in the homes of a local families.
Telling stories during the seminarTelling stories during this seminar greatly enhances the experience of the trip. Telling the story while standing at the site where it happened is thrilling! These stories are not told as a performance on a stage. These are simply shared with the group as a way of remembering what happened at a particular site. BibleTelling provides training and suggestions to help prepare for this part of the seminar. Reading the story aloud, instead of telling it, is also acceptable.
