Holy Land II: The Wilderness and Plains
John Beck
Explore new locations like the Judean Wilderness and Coastal Plain and bring new understanding to some of your favorite Bible stories.
About The Course
In this course, Dr. Jack Beck takes you across Israel to explore new locations and bring new understanding to some of your favorite Bible stories. You’ll start in the barren Judean Wilderness, where you’ll see how God provided for and protected David, Jesus, and others in Scripture in the physical wilderness, and how He provides for you today in your times of need. Then you’ll journey outward to the scenic Coastal Plain where you’ll discover the beauty of the seaside and better understand God’s plan of bringing the gospel to the whole world through the story of Peter in Jaffa. Then you’ll move on to the Shephelah where God enabled important victories—including the well-known showdown between David and Goliath—and allowed His gospel message to continue to spread.
Gear up for adventure as Dr. Jack Beck leads the way, showing you how God guided and guarded the lives of His people in Bible times and how He does the same for you today.
