Going for a vacation is not a simple business when you are a devoted Christian because some destinations can make believers forget about the sanctity of life. However, staying at home and never visiting new places is also not a right way to live. In the Biblical verse John 16:33, it is said, “I have told you these things so that in Me you may have peace. You will have suffering in this world. Be courageous! I have conquered the world.” Christ had redeemed those who praise Him. He has turned the world into a place full of grace and joy.

Besides, going for a vacation with our family members can strengthen and nurture the bond and faith in Christ. Here are some holiday ideas for you.

Holiday Programs from Local Church

Your community church is supposed to have holiday programs for the attendants. Your kids can make friends with fellow Christians through participating in the campground or charity activities. Meanwhile, the Church also provides retreats if you are looking for a calm, quiet, and peaceful holiday.

Church programs may not be as adventurous as if you go for a mountain exploration or scuba diving, but joining in a volunteer program can make us understand more about sympathy and gratitude. You will experience how relieving it is to see the smiles from those whom we help.

A Journey to Israel

Our Lord was born in Nazareth, Israel. Now, the place is, of course, different from how it was during Christ era. But if you go to the country, the traces of sacredness are all there. True believers will experience some sort of enlightenment as soon as they set foot on the land.

Megiddo is supposed to be the place of the Battle of Armageddon. Jesus’ miracle of walking on water took place in the Sea of Galilee. And Abraham’s tents are where religious pilgrims gathered to follow the footsteps of Abraham. For the peak of the spiritual experience, you must go to Jerusalem, the place of the crucifixion. There are many spiritual adventures you can do in Israel.

Christian Cruise in Alaska

Seeing the majesty of God’s creation can enhance the strength of our faith, and Alaska Cruise facilitates you to witness massive glaciers, beautiful mountains, and gigantic whales in the region while attending to inspirational preaching by notable pastors. They also have entertainment events that do not cross the limits of a pious believer. You will enjoy being among fellow Christians while having fun with the blessings of Christ.
