Welcome back. Your plan is right where you left it.
Awaken Your Church to Israel.
This is not marketing. It will take more than promotion to get your people to retreat in Israel. You need God's help to fill your tour bus. This is a living plan — build it, pray it, and come back each week to move it forward. Scroll to build your plan.
This is awakening, not advertising.
God has already called specific people to go on your Israel retreat. Your work is to find the ones with the map to Israel in their hearts — and awaken them.
This is awakening
God has called specific people to go. Your job is to find those with the road to Jerusalem already in their hearts — and stir them awake.
Partner with God
You are working with the Holy Spirit to help everyone God has called to Jerusalem take the journey with you. You are not doing this alone.
Your decision leads
When you say, "Come to Israel — I myself am going," you activate something supernatural.
"I myself am going." — Zechariah 8:21"Blessed are those whose strength is in you, in whose hearts is the highway to Jerusalem."
Crank up the heat
Prayer is the engine. Start here — before anything else.
As we say at Philip's House, "No prayer, no Israel trip." It's easy to skimp or skip on prayer — don't. It doesn't take a crowd. Two or three are more than enough. But pray over lots and lots of names, and you'll be surprised what God does.
Make us your prayer partners.
Let Philip's House pray with you and walk your journey alongside you.
Philip's House are your prayer partners. We want to walk with you each step of the way. Tell us more about yourself so we can keep in touch.
Catch fresh vision of Israel.
Google "Israel" and most images are negative. Give your people — and yourself — an accurate, appealing picture of the Promised Land. Binge watch these, then share them. Check each off as you go.
The binge tracker
Watch, then embed one in a weekly email or run it before Sunday's message.
Cast a compelling "why"
It's not enough to say you're going. Why should people give their time and money?
Here are reasons other leaders give. Tap the one that resonates — then make it your own.
Set a goal — then a stretch goal
Ask greatly of God. Set a goal, then ask: "How could we exceed it?"
One church asked, "What if 5% of our adult Sunday attenders joined our Israel retreat?" Then they stretched it: "How could we sponsor youth and young adults to go too?" That's a goal surpassed by a Big Hairy Audacious Goal.
The roadmap to fill your Israel retreat.
Make this plan your own. Check off each step, jot your notes, and come back every week to see your progress and push it forward. God will exceed your expectations.
Your weekly check-in.
Two minutes a week keeps the fire burning. Review your progress, pray over your names, and name one move for the week ahead.
Your plan is saved privately in this browser on this device — nothing is sent anywhere. Use the same device and browser to pick up where you left off.
You don't do this alone.
Philip's House walks every step with you — vision, videos, monthly Zoom check-ins, and a team praying alongside you. Let's fill your retreat together.
