Testimonials

“It is one thing to learn something in a textbook about people, history, and language but it is indescribably amazing to live with those people around that history and language yourself.”
(Elise Snow, BA Spanish, ’21) |
|
“Anyone who has a slight interest in how they can best relate to others should go. I have benefited so much from the change in perspective that occurred in me during my time in Israel and Palestine. This trip made me see the need for the Gospel in the Middle East and taught me ways to reach and interact with the culture.”
(Nathan Swaim, BS Accounting, ’18) |
|
“Not only do you get to experience famous locations first-hand, you also get to have incredible conversations with others who are experiencing those things with you. You get to learn from multiple perspectives simultaneously.”
(Nathan Young, MA Communication Studies, ’19) |
