Greetings! In May 8–16, 2024 Mary and I will be leading a 9-day Bible Study Tour of Greece.
Our Bible Study Tour will begin in Philippi, where the "Good News" was first preached in Europe. We will visit biblical places such as Thessalonica, Berea, Athens, Corinth, and Cenchrea—as well as World Heritage sites such as a monastery in Meteora and Delphi. We will stop at the beautiful museum that contains lavish gold artifacts from the tomb of Philip II, the father of Alexander the Great.
I will be giving mini-lectures along the way both on the bus and on the sites, drawing from my studies. I have spent 16 years of my adult life living in, and guiding, academic groups in Israel, Jordan, Greece, and Turkey (including living, teaching, and guiding in Jerusalem for 7 years).
Tour Dates and Cost: May 8–16, 2024. Cost: $3,990 per person in Double Occupancy; add $690 Single Room supplement; Includes roundtrip airfare from major US cities to Greece and return.

You are invited to join us!
