The Hinnom Valley is a place few people visit but has amazing things to see and a sobering message. Join us as we walk the valley and see and learn all about this biblical place. We'll see the Field of Blood (Akeldama Monastery), see the Tomb of Caiaphas (the high priest who condemned Christ to crucifixion), and learn why Christ used it as an example of hell.

Faith Lesson from the Hinnom Valley
1. Worship of false gods is ugly and destructive. Today, in a metaphorical sense, we can also sacrifice our children on the altar of false idols if we neglect God and don't raise our children to fear Him.
2. Hell is a true reality, even though it might seem unjust or uncomfortable.
3. Coming judgment is certain and will take place.
4. Are we genuinely saved and walking with God so we will escape the judgment to come?
