Journeys of the Apostles

Join Dr. Michael Rydelnik for the Journeys of the Apostles tour October 7 - 18, 2026
Beginning in Athens and Corinth, we’ll visit these two sites from Paul's journeys. Then we’ll board the Star Flyer sailing ship (chartered just for our Messianic Journeys expedition) to follow the routes of the apostolic Journeys. All along the way we’ll study the Scriptures on location where Paul taught and even penned some of his New Testament letters. We’ll take in the highlights and culture of key biblical sites and other historic locations in both Greece and Turkey. We’ll follow the Scriptures to Ephesus, Patmos, Pergamum and other amazing locations in the ministry of both Paul and John. We’ll enjoy a final day at sea after visiting these amazing sites.
This is truly a New Testament journey of a lifetime. Space is limited, so register soon!
