I’ve been to Israel twice, once with a Christian archaeologist. It’s fascinating to envision life as Bible peoples knew it. Yet it’s almost impossible to break down the huge wall of distance, time, language and culture. I made a documentary with this focus from my 54 hours of footage touring Israel.

What Did Going to Israel do for Me?

Forgiveness is like buying a house. When you first determine to forgive it’s like a huge down payment, and regularly afterwards, more payments. More re-commitments to forgive. For 12 years I was a mess. Actually from childhood I was a mess. But one domino caused the next to fall, and the next, up until when I married a man. That was to escape my inability to heal from my emotional pain and inefficient coping mechanisms. As my marriage was falling apart my pain got 2-3 times worse than my failing marriage caused, due to another individual’s deception (not my husband). Then, going to Israel those 2 times—at the height of all this pain—gave me a bigger boost healing than anything else ever could.
