Where Scripture comes to life: through faith, history, and photography.

Pathways: Faith Lessons in the Land of the Bible is a stunning large-format hardcover that carries you across the Holy Land, from the wells of Beersheba to the shores of the Sea of Galilee, and from the cliffs of Masada to the Mount of Olives.
