Not Just Another Program

Imagine waking up in Jerusalem and hiking to the Mount of Olives to watch the sunrise.

Then opening your Bible and reading the words Jesus spoke from the very place you’re standing.

Ten weeks like that have a way of changing the way you read Scripture forever.

What is Acts 1:8 Jerusalem?

Acts 1:8 Jerusalem is a 10-week Christian discipleship program and gap semester in Jerusalem designed for young adults ages 18–30.

It combines Bible teaching, daily discipleship, and life in the Old City, touring the biblical sites to help students grow in faith, understand Scripture more clearly, and prepare for what comes next.

Rather than continuing into college immediately, students take a focused season to build a strong foundation before moving forward into ministry, missions, or their next step.

Acts 1:8 Jerusalem functions as both a Christian discipleship program and a gap semester for young adults who want to step away from traditional college for a season and focus on spiritual growth, biblical understanding, and direction.

It is designed for those who are serious about their faith and want a clear, intentional starting point before moving forward into their next stage of life.

“You will be my witnesses… in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Acts 1:8
