Letter from Dr. Bailey
March 2013 is your opportunity to experience an unforgettable journey in the land of the Bible during the perfect time of the year. Israel is beautiful in the spring!
From the waters of Galilee to the winding streets of Jerusalem, we will explore the land of Abraham, David, and Jesus. Our goal is to increase your understanding of the Word of God and to draw you closer to the God of the Word.
I am privileged to be leading this tour with my friend and colleague, Dr. Stephen Bramer, chairman of the DTS Bible Exposition department, and Dr. Charles Dyer, Professor-at-large of Bible at Moody Bible Institute. We have led numerous tours through Israel and we are thrilled to be together in this expedition that will bring the Scriptures to life.
We have carefully selected our land operator, bus company, and driver to ensure your comfort and safety throughout the trip. We will stay in some wonderful hotels in Israel. In short, this will be a tour characterized by the excellence you expect from Dallas Theological Seminary.
One final note-space is limited. Make your reservation today. This tour will be especially popular because we are offering an optional extension to the Red Sea and Jordan, which includes the city of Petra.
Come and join us!
With anticipation,
Mark L. Bailey, Ph.D.
President, Dallas Theological Seminary
