BIBLICAL ISRAEL TOURS - Biblical Tours with a Personal Pastoral Touch, Led by Rev. Dr. John DeLancey, pastor and author of the book Devotional Treasures from the Holy Land.

Welcome to Biblical Israel Tours! If you are searching for a solidly biblical, evangelical, and life-changing tour to Israel, I'm glad you found this site. I look forward to sharing my personal friendship and ministry with you! As a former one-year archaeology and historical geography student in Jerusalem, and leader of 21 previous Israel tours, I'm excited to offer 4 up-coming tours:

Each of these tours will not only make the Bible "come alive," but also touch your heart. Specifically, the all-Israel 13 Day tour (April, 2012) uniquely include 60+ sites (see below for a listing of sites), including at least 15 sites most tour groups don't visit. This identical tour just took place in Oct/Nov, 2011. (The video of this amazing trip is posted HERE). The June, 2012 and April, 2013 tours includes 45+ sites. The November, 2012 tour includes the Pyramids/Sphinx, Memphis, Sakara (in Cairo); Petra, Nebo, Medeba, and Jerash (in Jordan); and 45+ sites in Israel.

 

As God leads and provides, I warmly welcome you to join me on an upcoming tour!

From the south to the north, the itinerary for each Israel tour will help you explore many of the stories of the Bible, from the narratives of the Old Testament to the life and ministry of Jesus!

This web site is also filled with many pages of tour information, photos, video clips of previous tours and sites, and other resources that will help your own exploration of the world of the Bible "in context" of the land.

I am the pastor of the Stoneridge Covenant Church in the Pittsburgh, PA area. I lead 2-3 trips each year. I'm humbled by the 100's of people who have joined me throughout the past years from all over the U.S., Canada, and even from various other countries of the world.

In God's saving grace,

Pastor John DeLancey
