Summary
As a lifelong student of Scripture, Kathie Lee Gifford has always desired a deeper understanding of God's Word and a deeper knowledge of God Himself. But it wasn't until she began studying the biblical texts in their original Hebrew and Greek -- along with actually hiking the ancient paths of Israel -- that she found the fulfillment of those desires. Now you can walk with Kathie on a journey through the spiritual foundations of her faith. Explore dozens of ancient landmarks and historical sites from Israel, the promised land of God’s covenant. Go beyond a "Sunday school" approach to the Bible by digging into the original languages and deeper meanings of the Holy Scriptures.
