The infant church was nurtured in the Mediterranean world of antiquity, and from there it quickly spread across the globe. Due largely to the missionary labors of the Apostle Paul, churches began to be planted beyond the borders of Palestine, expanding into Asia Minor, Greece, and Rome. Set sail to this "cradle of Christianity" on our 2022 Mediterranean Study Cruise. Over twelve nights and thirteen days, you’ll get a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see the sights where the early church was born and grew. You can explore some of the most fully recovered ruins of any ancient city in Ephesus, or climb Mars Hill where Paul preached to the Athenians. Of course, the culmination of our trip will be a visit to the Holy Land, where you can walk where Jesus walked and gave His life to secure our redemption. These firsthand experiences can enrich your understanding of Scripture, and the memories you make will give proof to the adage, "You just had to be there." We invite you to join Ligonier Ministries on this unforgettable study cruise.
