If your goal is to really understand the gospels, you’re going to have to do some fishing. Why? Simon Peter, Andrew, James and John were fishermen by trade. And other disciples may have been involved in the fishing occupation. But what was it like—at the time of Christ—fishing on the Sea of Galilee? Grab your rod and reel—tackle box, too. This week on The Land and the Book, we’re heading for the Sea of Galilee. Plus, we’ll update you on the ceasefire with Iran—and what lies ahead. So join us for The Land and the Book.
