Our Class

We have 45 students in our class as we study and travel throughout Israel. Our instructor is Dr. Carl Rasmussen. Dr. Rasmussen is Professor of Biblical Studies at Bethel College in Minnesota, has a Ph.D. in Ancient Near Eastern Studies, and also Th.M., B.D., and B.A. degrees. He is the author of the Zondervan NIV Atlas of the Bible and the history, archaeology, and geography editor for the revised Halley's Bible Handbook. Here is a link to his website, jammed with photos: http://www.holylandphotos.org/ Needless to say, he can speak in depth about what we are studying. What a gem of a resource!

the students in our class include a dozen people from Columbia Bible College in British Columbia, 5 students from other colleges - like our son Nick, 6 seminary students, 7 pastors, 4 college professors, and a good number of folks who simply want to learn more about the Bible. It is a great group of people; we are enjoying our time together!
