how should i prepare?

The two ways that are most important to prepare for your tour are spiritually and physically.

1). Spiritually

In addition to your own prayer and study of Scripture, here is a full READING LIST that will help you better prepare for all you’re going to learn on your trip.

2). Physically. This trip is meant to give you the most accurate experience of what it was like for God’s people to live in The Land, meaning it will demand a great deal of you physically. Every day will feature at least one physically demanding hike, many times in a dry and hot climate. Because of this, physical preparation is also very important. Here is a PHYSICAL PREPARATION GUIDE to help you train for you trip.
