Luke in the Land - Bible Study Book with Video Access Paperback – August 1, 2024
Purchase options and add-ons
In our Bibles, we have four Gospels describing Jesus’s time on earth: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The land of Israel—the place Jesus walked and taught during His earthly ministry—is often referred to as the “fifth Gospel.”
Follow Kristi McLelland through Israel as we study snapshots from the Gospel of Luke to see where the stories of the Bible took place. Over 7 sessions in this Bible study workbook, challenge the way you read the accounts of Jesus through teaching videos that take you to locations in Israel like Bethlehem, the Sea of Galilee, Gethsemane, Jerusalem, and the road to Emmaus. Along the way, you'll see how Jesus, the Messiah, brought His kingdom to earth for everybody.
Features:
- 7 video teaching sessions shot in Israel with Kristi McLelland, available via redemption code printed in the Bible study workbook
- Beautiful color photography that helps you visualize places where Jesus ministered
- 6 weeks of personal study
Benefits:
- Travel through Israel in teaching sessions filmed in Bethlehem, the Sea of Galilee, Jerusalem, and more to behold the gospel story in a whole new way
- Gain a deeper understanding of stories of Jesus's life from a first-century point of view
- Explore cultural and historical concepts that will give new perspective on well-known biblical stories
- Session 1: Introduction (25:45)—From the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Kristi McLelland invites women to join her in a journey through the very places Jesus walked. In this introductory session, Kristi demonstrates the snapshot-like structure of the Gospel of Luke and tells of one day in the life of Jesus in the wilderness area along the road to Jericho.
- Session 2: Incarnation (28:42)—In this session, filmed in Bethlehem, Kristi dispels common myths as she teaches the Christmas story from Luke 2.
- Session 3: Inauguration (20:03)—At the beginning of His ministry, Jesus was baptized in the Jordan River and then went into the desert for forty days and nights. From those locations, Kristi shows us how this inaugurated Jesus’s ministry on earth.
- Session 4: Invitation (29:39)—Jesus spent most of His time on earth in the region of Galilee. Join Kristi in that region as she describes Jesus calling His disciples and challenges us to follow Him still today.
- Session 5: Partnership (25:51)—In this session, Kristi walks us through snapshots of Jesus’s ministry and teaching in locations around and on the Sea of Galilee.
- Session 6: Crucifixion (30:52)—Beginning in the Garden of Gethsemane, Kristi walks us through Jesus’s last moments before His death in locations like the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and the Southern Steps of the temple.
- Session 7: Resurrection (31:04)—After Jesus’s resurrection, He spent time teaching, eating, and walking with His disciples. From the road to Emmaus, Kristi sends forth the same challenge Jesus does—go and advance the kingdom.
- Bonus Session: The Making of Luke in the Land (19:41)—In this bonus video, filmed months after the Luke in the Land taping in Israel, Kristi shares her heart behind the study and how God used “bringing the lights, camera, action” to Israel in her own life.

Kristi takes you through the history of the time period. You feel like you are walking the roads with Jesus and understanding the culture and lives of people during that day.
The videos are absolutely beautiful with amazing settings throughout the Holy Land. Watching them, I felt like I was stepping back in time and visiting the Holy Land to follow Jesus.
The study is different from ones I have completed in the past. It doesn’t walk you through verse by verse, but rather takes snapshots of several stories throughout Luke and puts them in context of the people and culture.
I found that I enjoyed the different perspective and I now read Luke with a view toward how and where the events happened.
I used it alongside another study to help me study each verse. Luke in the Land helped me get a “big picture” view of the events of the book.
While I loved the videos and the incredible scenery, the content was sometimes a bit repetitive and covered much of what I had been reading throughout the week. At times, I was wishing for more depth or new information in the videos.
You will enjoy this study if you are wanting a big picture overview of some key events in the book of Luke and want to understand the people, culture, and time period more deeply.
I used this book on my own for personal study rather than with a group. It’s wonderful to have the video access included and definitely worth paying more to have access to the amazing footage from the Holy Land.
Now that I know what to expect, I plan to do her other studies while also using commentaries or other resources to flesh out my studies and obtain a verse-by-verse overview while also learning more about the context and the people.
