As we journeyed from Nazareth to Jerusalem we went to the far north of Galilee and around the lake edge. We stopped at Banias Springs, the source of the river Jordan, at the foot of Mt Hebron, in the region of Caesarea Philippi, where we sat and heard the gospel story from Matthew 16, a very profound moment!
We then went and visited Agrippa's palace as mentioned in ActsBut it was probably the drive back to Jerusalem around Lake Galilee that was the most interesting partI because of how close we got to the borders of Lebanon, Syria and Jordan, all enemies of Israel. At some points we were metres away. It was quite safe but still a little unnerving!
