“Go walk through the Land and describe it…” Joshua 18:8

"Thank you for referring me to Richard to be a guide for my partner on his first trip to Israel. I spoke to my partner a few times and his trip to Israel was great and he said Richard was fantastic". Thank you for all your efforts in making this first time trip to Israel (which I appreciate is a big responsibility) great for them". Joel Strauss, Kaplan Fox & Kilsheimer LLP, NYC

"I wanted to thank you for the wonderful work that you did while leading our group in Israel. As a Christ follower since the age of 11 years, I have always had a great respect for, and a very positive sense of the nation of Israel. But until I became part of this tour group, I had never grasped much more than that very broad concept, regarding Israel. I knew that it was the center of the Biblical narrative, but had never paid attention to God’s clear intent for the nation. As you talked about and shared the history of the nation, you painted a very distinct and significantly more complete picture of Israel in my mind and heart. Quite clearly, Israel is God’s choice people and nation. After having the privilege of hearing your words and your heart regarding Israel, I have found awakened in me, a deep and profound love for the nation, the people, and the land, that I had never had before. I am forever changed because of the time that I spent experiencing your teaching and leadership while we were in Israel. Thanks!" Kelly Stephenson, Double Oaks Worship Pastor

“You have been a profound blessing to me during my time in Israel. I will miss this incredible land and the elements you have brought to our group. You have been inspirational to me; my experience in Israel would not have been the same without you”. Dalton Howard, Musician/Williamsburg, Va. USA

“Richard was a fantastic tour guide. His thorough and extensive knowledge of the land and history of Israel and his delivery of the material with such complete heart is a rare and unique gift. We highly without reservation recommend him as a guide for any group”. Senior Pastors Gerry and Rebecca Chavez, Roswell NM, USA

Thanks again for making our trip nothing short of amazing! Now that we are back in Florida, I thought I would leave you with a few thoughts: When people go to places like New York or The Wall of China, they look for a tour guide. A tour guide is someone who shows tourists around places of interest. That is not you! When people come to Israel, they are going on a pilgrimage to make a spiritual connection. Your recognition of this and ability to nurture it is what separates your service apart from others. Both your deep rooted-knowledge and more importantly, your faith helped all of us not just understand the Biblical and historical significance of the sites we visited; it also allowed us to make a much more intimate connection with God. Thank you again for making this a memorable experience for all of us! - Ron Joyal

"When it comes to guides in Israel, you are the best that I have ever seen. You bring out more background information, Bible scholarship and a Believer's passion than any guide that I have ever used. You will always guide my groups. I would recommend you to anyone!" - Hank Erwin, FMR State Senator Alabama, USA

"Other guides take you on a tour and you will learn and see many things. But Richard takes you on a journey through Israel. With a blend of history, scripture, personal application and drama he makes the land and its stories come alive. Richard touches your heart, mind and soul such that you will leave refreshed, spiritually challenged and with a new appreciation for the scriptures. The students that I bring to Israel are still asking about him long after they have forgotten every other guide!" -Dr. Kathleen Weiss, M.D., Professor, George Fox University, Portland, Oregon, USA

"Great leadership, attitude, instruction & teaching! We could not have asked for better! Our lives have been deeply enriched by walking with you where Jesus walked! What a blessing and experience! I will always remember the many times that the Lord touched me during this trip! Special moments with the Lord and each one of you! - Pastor Paul Brasher, Birmingham, Al.
