Travel can be transformative. For Christian schools, the journey should focus on far more than sightseeing — it should be about deepening faith, creating community with fellow believers, and sparking a passion for lifelong learning and service.
Imagine the excitement on your students’ faces as they stand in front of historical sites they’ve only read about in books. Knowing they are learning about these sights from a biblical perspective makes it even better, and you can bring this kind of experience to your school community with Christian travel tours.
Learn more about what your students (and your educators) can discover on their next trip.
What Students Discover Through Christian Travel Tours
Christian travel tours give young people a chance to see things they’ve learned in a classroom and the pages of books out in the real world. They’ll go on a journey that brings history and Scripture to life. Here are some of the incredible discoveries waiting for your students.
Deeper Connections to the Bible
Immersive experiences give students a greater understanding of history while giving them deeper connections to their beliefs. They might walk in the footsteps of the founding fathers and explore how faith shaped a nation. Or they can discover the early settlers’ rich history and their lasting impact on American culture. Through every exploration, students gain insights into the Bible and its relevance in our modern world.
Development of a Christian Worldview
Travel can broaden a student’s perspective, allowing them to encounter a rich history of Christian traditions in the United States and elsewhere. They’ll see how Christianity has shaped art, architecture, and our social fabric over the centuries. It can help solidify their beliefs while seeing how others express their faith, giving them a more well-rounded worldview.
Better Understanding History’s Impact on Our World
By exploring historical landmarks with a biblical lens, students better understand how the world was shaped into what it’s become today. They’ll see how historical events influenced our past and continue to impact our present. Historical sites like battlefields, monuments, and museums can spark important conversations about faith, forgiveness, and the importance of standing up for your beliefs. Thanks to lessons about the past, your students will prepare to engage more thoughtfully with the world around them.
Educators Can Discover Something New, Too
It’s more than your students who will experience the impact of travel. Educators also gain valuable experience through Christian travel tours. They’ll enjoy benefits such as:
- Stronger school communities. Shared experiences create lasting bonds. Going on an adventure together builds respect, friendships, and deeper understanding between students and teachers.
- New teaching methods. Educators who see experienced guides at work will learn new ways to weave history and biblical context together. They’ll also gain insight by experiencing incredible sites for themselves.
- Faith-enriching encounters. Educators can deepen their faith alongside their students with opportunities for daily devotions, prayers, and faith-based discussions. Educators can also connect with other believers, expanding their faith community and experiencing the joy of a shared purpose.
