The lands where Jesus lived and missioned can be seen as a ""Fifth Gospel”, illuminating the reality of Jesus and his times. Every year millions of pilgrims flock to the Holy Land, walking in the footsteps of Jesus and the apostles. Now, Holy Land takes you on a virtual pilgrimage of these sacred places. Rev. Donald Senior, a renowned scholar and pilgrimage leader, will guide you down the Jordan River, across the Sea of Galilee, and up to the Mount of Olives. As you take this journey, you will gain deeper insight into the power and beauty of the Gospel message.

National tensions are at a record high. People on all points in the political spectrum care deeply about their country, although they differ wildly in their opinions about what it looks like to serve that country well. As Christians, we love God and seek to follow him. At the same time, nothing shapes us and tugs at our loyalties quite like the place we live. And of course we are regularly encouraged to pledge our allegiance to our country―or particular understandings of it. Who wins when the priorities of God and our country clash?
