The Encounter in Israel

There was a morning in Israel when I boarded the bus in pain I had carried for years, and quietly prayed for an encounter without really expecting one. By the end of the day, I walked out of a room without my cane. The Encounter in Israel is that story, told as a short, quiet read, from the bench on the Mount of Beatitudes where I first heard Him speak, to the moment the pain was simply gone. If your faith has felt more like a habit than an encounter lately, I wrote this for you. It comes with a few promises to sit with, so you can slow down, be still, and let Jesus feel near again.
