About Me

Hi, I'm Nate. I'm a graduate of the US Naval Academy, and I have a Masters in Theological Studies from Bethel Seminary. I've been in the Navy for 23 years and I've had some pretty great adventures. A couple years ago I went to the Holy Land for one of my Master's degree courses and I got hooked. I'm writing this blog because travel, adventure, travel security and the Bible interest me. And I think I offer a different perspective. Currently I'm studying Biblical History and Geography with Jerusalem University College. I spent the fall of 2022 in Jerusalem and will go back soon. Thanks for reading and let me know what you think.
