Are you near Tiberius? There are several shops there where you can get Christian books.
And I have shelves of books. I'm always glad to box up some and send them where they are needed. What are you wanting to read? Fiction? Devotional? Study? :hug:

thank you so much BarbB! i live about 30-40 min's away from Tiberius. so i can possibly go there in 2 more days to check out some books.
what are the names of the book shops? i'm really looking for fiction, devotional and study...well mostly i want to find a good book for my bf whos a non-believer to show him Christ is God's son.
thanks for offering to send me some books, thats really nice of you, but i live with him mom who's a non-believer too and i don't think she'll be happy if i get books about christ sended to me.

Well, the two shops I know are at The Jesus Boat exhibit in the Upper Galilee and at The Galilee Experience in "downtown" Tiberius. Both have websites:

http://www.thegalileeexperience.com/
The Galilee Experience has an absolutely beautiful slide show which is a gentle (not gentile LOL) evangelical show. Can you get him to go to that - as a tourist exercise, maybe?
Let us know your plans and we can keep you covered with prayer! :hug:

I'm so envious - I was in Tiberius last year about this time! :cry: I want to be there right now! (Adoni is working on me and my lack of patience :D )
Have fun and be blessed. The Galilee Experience I found to be wonderful. And their shop is outstanding!

She has a Church in Isreal that has a Young Adults Worship service that is wonderful for Jews to go to and it is completely safe too(meaning no one will ever know you were there), somehow the room is dark except for the words on the screen during the worship time or something like that.....pm her and ask her about it...She has had Soldiers in the IDF go there with her and now I think she even visits them and holds bible studies with them:clap:
We will be :pray:ing for you!
