Join teacher and historian Ray Vander Laan (a.k.a. RVL) for a study of the Bible in its historical, geographical, and cultural context. Filmed on location in the Middle East, these clips from the full-length Faith Lessons™ video series will transform your understanding of God and challenge you to be a true follower of Jesus. RVL’s preaching and teaching ministry highlights God’s call for Christians to be a transforming influence on their culture. He doesn’t view himself first as a scholar in the area of Jewish culture and archaeology. Rather, he has established a knowledge base in Jewish culture and archaeology by studying the scholarship of others. His gifts, expertise, and calling are to link that cultural information and the Bible so that the message applies to our lives today.
