Walk in the footsteps of Paul and John during the day and study their New Testament writings at night! Travel by deluxe motorcoach to sites connected with Paul’s First, Second and Third Missionary Journeys (Attalia, Perge, Aspendos, Colossae, Laodicea, Hierapolis, Aphrodisias, Ephesus, Miletus, Didyma, Assos, Alexander Troas, Neapolis, Philippi, Amphipolis, Thessalonica, Berea, Vergina, Athens, Corinth, and Cenchrea) and the seven churches (Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea) to whom John wrote the Book of Revelation.
Most evenings feature a study session either on “Paul: His Life and His Letters” or “From Patmos to Paradise: The Seven Sermons to the Seven Churches (Revelation 2–3).” Join host Jeff Weima, professor of New Testament at Calvin Theological Seminary and leading biblical scholar, for this truly inspirational tour.
Other students, spouses and family members of students, and friends of Calvin Seminary (including alumni, pastors, and donors) may sign up for the study tour, though space will be afforded first to students taking the trip for academic credit.
