Books to Prepare for your Journey to Israel

Prep Books for pastors and congregations

So that everyone on a team can enter into their journey at the same level of understanding, we ask team members to begin reading the 3 books listed below. When you use these links, Ruth Israel Initiative, as an affiliate of Amazon, will receive 3-5% of the cost of your purchase as a donation! We think that's rather generous! And it doesn't cost you any extra. 

Seth Barnes' The Art of Listening Prayer

This little 28-day devotional will help you develop a listening ear for God to speak his heart into your life. It includes amazing journaling questions for opening conversations with the Lord, a skill you will certainly find helpful during our soul care, spiritual formation experiences in the Land.
