Caesarea Series

Our latest trek takes us to the sunny coastal region of Caesarea. This was a place known for architecture and innovation as Herod created a ‘mini-Rome’, complete with amphitheatre, hippodrome and harbour. In this location, with Andrew Ollerton as our guide, we get to know the place where Peter’s vision on the rooftop of Simon the Tanner's house led to the explosion of Christianity as a global movement. It was here that Paul was imprisoned for two years before he finally set sail for Italy, to share the gospel in Rome. 

With a new series released every fortnight, subscribe to the Bible Trek YouTube channel to be first in line for the next trek!
