With The Christian Traveler's Companion: The USA and Canada, Amy Eckert and William Petersen highlighted the Christian heritage of North America for readers vacationing in their own backyard. Their follow-up book guided travelers as they experienced the spiritual richness of Western Europe. Now the globetrotting duo offers a new guide of special significance to travelers of faith: The Christian Traveler's Companion: Bible Lands.While most comparable travel guides include just overviews of Israel and Greece, Eckert and Petersen's book is much broader, including twelve countries listed in Scripture. Here is vital and engaging travel information for anyone journeying to Israel, Egypt, Cyprus, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Turkey, Greece, Italy, Malta, Syria, and Crete. Many Christians long to visit the Holy Land, and Israel is, naturally, the cornerstone country featured in this guide. But the authors also unfold a reader's understanding of Scripture with tips on visiting such biblical sites as Ephesus, Corinth, Petra, or Mt. Hermon in Syria.

Suitable for Protestants and Catholics, The Christian Travelers Companion: Bible Lands references.
