Where you become a part of the story
It is a daring task to explain what a visit to Israel does to a Christian. It is similar to the famous challenge of how you can explain the color green to someone who was born blind.
The reason is that an Israel tour is so much more than tourism; it is a journey into the origin of your own salvation. Israel is where reality dramatically shatters the distance to the black letters of the books of Isaiah, Jeremiah, Matthew, and John and makes you become a part of the story. The result is awe, as you are confronted with God’s incredible greatness.
We believe a wide variety of tours is needed since Christians around the world are in different stages with regards to their relationship to, and knowledge about, Israel. Tours for first timers that include the main biblical sites will always be needed. But we also offer theme tours, hiking tours, study tours, and leader tours.
ThereforeIsrael creates and offers its own tours, but we are also organizing tours on request. Churches or organizations that are interested, can contact us for a tour tailor made for their specific group in terms of dates, hotel standard, and itinerary.
Why travel with ThereforeIsrael?
The short answer is; because we never stop being fascinated by Israel and what God did and does there. Our goal is that other Christians will share this experience.
But we are not without experience. During the last fifteen years, the leader of TFI has been responsible for organizing hundreds of tours and excursions all over Israel, including pilgrim tours, study tours, hiking tours and leader tours in all group sizes from a handful to fifteen hundred. He also holds two master degrees from the Hebrew University in Jerusalem and has been living in Israel for eight years. This, in addition to working with some of Israel’s best tour operators, guarantee a high quality of the tours.
Important note: ThereforeIsrael specializes in organizing tours for youth pastors and leaders. These are interactive tours that deal with both the biblical and modern aspects of Israel. The goal is to equip these leaders to teach about Israel in a sound and biblically balanced way. Under the tab, “Finding Noomi”, we explain more about reaching the next generation.
