  • Biblical References - Israel
    BIBLICAL REFERENCES - ISRAEL THE COASTAL PLAIN Caesarea Maritime -- Founded by Herod the Great in 22 B.C., named for Augustus Caesar. The seat of Roman government in Palestine for over 500 years. A center of the early followers of Jesus: Phillip, one of the seven deacons from Jerusalem, was the first to preach here, and later settled in Caesarea with his 4 prophesying daughters. (Acts 8:40; 21:8-9) Here, Cornelius became the first Gentile convert to the new faith (Acts 10), and the Apostle Paul was imprisoned before being taken to Rome to stand trial. Cana -- The place of the first miracle performed by Jesus, where he turned the water into wine at that most famous wedding. (John 2:1-11) Nazareth -- A small village never mentioned in the Hebrew Bible (OT), today Nazareth is the largest Arab city in Israel with a population of 60,000 - half Christians and half Muslims. Here, the Lord Jesus spent most of his life until his ministry began at age 30. (e.g., Luke 1:26-28; 2:1-7; 2:21-23; 2:41-52; 4:16-30 Mark 6:1-6) K'far Kedem -- Restored, life-size model of a Galilee village. Spend a festive evening amidst the ancient atmosphere of the Galilee region; feast on local foods and wines; donkey rides; witness olive pressing, baking, and goat milking. Mount Carmel -- This mountain, 13 miles long, projects into the Mediterranean Sea at Haifa. The mountain rises from the sea so sharply that the rapidly rising air is forced to deposit its moisture as rain or dew.

He found all that, and more. Through his M.Div. and prison studies certificate, he developed a theological imagination rooted in the experience and revelation of God among the poor and marginalized. His field education experiences in Baltimore and Houston gave him a vision of empowerment for black and Latino youth. And he met his wife, Maranatha, through their study community group. Today Brandon serves as executive director for Urban Hope in the Walltown neighborhood in Durham. In this ministry, his theological and practical training now helps to empower young people through spiritual, economic, and education resources. Brandon and Maranatha also participate in transformation by giving financially to the Divinity Annual Fund. “We believe Duke has shaped us in profound ways and believe it can profoundly shape generations to come. We encourage our fellow alumni to participate in God's work at Duke Divinity School by intentionally investing in the institution so that it may continue.” LES TODD PHOTOGRAPHY JOIN US TODAY!

  • The Holy Land May 6Th Thru 17Th, 2013
    The Holy Land th th May 6 thru 17 , 2013 Amy and I caught a ride with Dick Eastwick to the Presbyterian Church about 5pm on the Monday the 6th, to begin the journey so meticulously planned over the last two years by brother David. We were joining about two dozen others (mostly members of our Church including our Pastor Bill Getman and his wife Sue) for a shuttle van ride to the Philadelphia Airport, pre-arranged by Ed Hess. After a lot of baggage was precariously packed in, David assigned himself the task of keeping the baggage from spilling over onto the other passengers. On arrival at the airport, it was up to each individual to get through ticketing, checking of baggage, security, and the trek to the gate. We had hours to kill, and for some there was an immediate need to get some food and drink. Amy had passes for us to go to the USAIR lounge, which had complimentary drinks and light food. Robin & Bill Wright joined us there until it was time for the flight. David & Peggy joined the Giordanos in a restaurant. Others gathered at the gate to meet and greet some who had chosen not to take the shuttle there. The flight was about 9 hours, and landed at Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv in the afternoon, local time. We met our guide, Hela, after exiting immigration and customs. Amy had a scare as her suitcase did not appear until everyone else seemed have gotten theirs and left. We moaned, “Not Portugal again!”—referring to the nightmare of our lost baggage coming from Frankfurt to Lisbon last May.
