Go to Israel. I don’t just mean going to see the biblical sites; I’m talking about engaging the culture and learning about Israel as a modern state. Passages helped facilitate this experience for me. This new and growing organization gave me the opportunity to hear from speakers on all sides of the issues Israel faces. They gave me a trip that was well-rounded spiritually and educationally on both ancient and modern Israel alike. Students, if you ever get the chance to travel with Passages I promise you will not regret it, and if you’re like me, it will truly change your life forever.
