Christ at the Checkpoint Student Blog

by Daniel

I have been living in the Holy Land for over six months now. Half of that was in Bethlehem, and the other half was in Jerusalem. Anyone who has spent any time here recognizes how much holy space there is. It is referred to as the “Holy Land” after all. There is no shortage of places with religious and spiritual significance.

by Daniel

There is nothing quite like seeing the Judean wilderness in the desolate dry season for the first time. Looking out to the East, you see nothing but long, rolling hills. Everything is brown and every peak is naked except for maybe a shrub or two. If it is a windy day, the dust will obscure your visibility, but if the sky is clear, you can see all the way to Jordan.
