Study Tours to Israel and Turkey

We currently offer study tours in even-numbered years (2022, 2024, etc.) as Marty takes the odd-numbered years to be with family and have a rhythm of rest. We recommend signing up for the BEMA Messenger (using the form above) to be the first to know when we release information about upcoming tours. Any currently available tours will also be posted here.

NOTE: If you are not planning on receiving a COVID vaccine, we do not recommend signing up for any of our study tours at this time; international travel requirements may change, but this is how we are preparing based on the current restrictions and guidelines.

BEMA Turkey 2022 -//- June 6–18

First, please make sure you watch our orientation video BEFORE registering.

There is no low-contact version of our Turkey trip as this tour is not nearly as physically strenuous. There are a few multi-mile hikes that some may have to sit out. You will want to be physically prepared for this trip, especially if you will be more challenged by the physical activity. This study tour is a focus on the New Testament; we’ll examine the context of Revelation in depth, as well as the ministry of Paul.

The orientation is almost an hour long, but it is designed to be informative and comprehensive; if you’re interested in going on the trip, we ask that you watch it in full to make an informed decision.
