BEMA Messenger #31

Turkey Trip in 2022

Our Israel trips are all full and the waiting lists are long, but there are JUST A FEW SEATS LEFT for BEMA Turkey 2022! Even if you were wanting to go to Israel, listeners of the podcast are more than equipped to join us for our time in Turkey and catch an Israel trip the next time around. While the trip is designed to be “Part 2” of a two-part BEMA experience, there’s not a single person on this trip who has been to BEMA Israel (since those trips were canceled last year). You’ll be in great company if you choose to join us.

Please make sure you watch our orientation video BEFORE registering. 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.

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.

Turkey Trip Orientation

GTI Tours, our travel agency for the trips, will be handling all registration and payment details. Once you’ve watched the orientation above and you are ready to register, see more details and register for the trip. Get your seat while it’s still available!

Steve’s Story

This is Steve.

He is a BEMA podrishioner, a counselor of 30 years, and a follower of Jesus for more than four decades. Listening to BEMA has added depth to his own walk with God, but it has also equipped him to set others free.

Despite more than 30 years of counseling and 35,000 clinical hours served, Steve is finding new ways to articulate the love of Christ. As he puts it, the “construct of God as the One who is enough, gives us enough, and meets us in our shame is a message of good news for all.”

Steve has quickly put his new language and understanding to work. He has shared what he is learning with many of his clients across the US, in addition to the people he encountered while traveling on a mission trip to Africa. Steve’s desire is to continue to bring this “spiritual manna” to others and offer them a deeper freedom than they have ever known before.
