e t e t e - o e e t s If I won a trip to the Museum of the Bible in Washington, DC, the three guests I'd invite would be Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez, and DJ Khaled. These individuals significantly influence the culture of our young people today; therefore, their realization of the Truth would serve to proliferate His Word, which is much needed today. Dr. Jessica Vera, President, Chief Executive Office, Elite Foundation I'd want to make sure to bring those who'd appreciate the experience and who probably even enhance it. First, I'd bring the recently graduated youth I've spent a little time mentoring. Second, I'd bring Sam Tripoli, a podcaster who enjoys learning about ancient history. Lastly, I'd bring one of my professors from Bible college who would be able to draw connections and elucidate on history and various exhibits... basically to give a personal tour to the rest of our group. Justus Martin, Photographer, Justus Martin Photo If I won a trip to the Museum of the Bible, I would bring my husband and grandchildren. I believe it is imperative for this next generation to recognize the importance of the Word of God and the sacrifices made by so many in order for us to have a Bible today. "The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever" (Isaiah 40:8). Dr. Mary Drabik, President, South Florida Bible College & Theological Seminary I am too much of a grandfather to want to go to see the Museum of the Bible without my grandkids accompanying me and my wife. Emma, Wyatt and Finn are all the celebrities I would need to enjoy the journey and the visit. They are inquisitive, intelligent and they would love the experience. As would Pap Pap and Nonna! Mike McDermott, PA, Seniors Real Estate Specialist, The Keyes Company I would take a family member who is not walking with the Lord but whom I believed would be impacted by the evidence on display regarding the Bible and Jesus. I would also take a child of eight - there is nothing more wonderful than seeing it from the perspective of a child. And finally, a young adult college student who has not been exposed to Christianity. I believe their exposure to this magnificent display of not just the Bible but the overarching grace of God working through the ages would create, at minimum, a desire to further explore the Christian faith and all it has to offer. Oksana Horton, Artistic Director, Torch and Trumpet Theatre Company If I were to win a trip to Washington, D.C. to visit the museum of the Bible and were allowed to take three other quests besides my wife, I would invite three special dedicated members of our church because these special church members truly love hearing the teaching of the word from the Bible. Whenever I am preaching the word of God, these three are very attentive, leaning forward in order to grasp every bit of the word that I am preaching from the Bible. These three members love reading and studying the word of God from the Bible even when they are not in church. O’Neal Dozier, Pastor, The Worldwide Christian Center I would bring my two oldest (college students) granddaughters. This will assist in understanding what grandma and papa find very important in life! Ray Monteleone, Paladin Global Partners If I won a trip to visit The Museum of the Bible, in Washington, D.C., the three people I’d like to take with me, (I’m glad you mentioned I could take my family first and foremost)….then I would like to be able to take Tim Tebow (who I don’t know personally,) but I know he was Homeschooled, and I would love to learn how he consistently applies Biblical principles helping children around the world. I would also like to take Les Feldman, because of our long time friendship, I know he would be great company and I love his deep thinking style. I know he would make the tour extremely interesting for me. And then I would like to take a 30-year-old young man named Timmy, who I’ve taught since he was a little boy, (he has Down Syndrome) and he really, really loves Jesus. I would love to see his joy and enthusiasm touring a place like this. I am sure all of us would have time of Prayer and Praise, time of awe and wonder, (discovering deeper depths of the Bible), and some lighthearted times of joy and laughter, but most of all, I’m sure I could learn a lot from all three of these men how they ‘live out the Bible’ in their daily lives! Coach Rick Andreassen, Founder/President, SAINTS International Sports Ministry and SAINTS Homeschool P.E. I haven’t made it to DC yet to visit the Museum of the Bible, but I sure have heard a lot of great things about it. Taking guests who are open to the gospel message but are still trying to come to grips with the Truth of the scriptures would be the people on the guest list. So my wife Candace and I would make a list of family members, friends, associates and those people in our neighborhood that we believe could be the most impacted by the visit and then go down the list until we have three of them to join us!
