	Week 1	#837	"2002 Spring Holy Land Tour #2: From the Sea of Galilee to the Hula Valley" This was the third day of the tour. After a boat ride on the Sea of Galilee, we visited Capernaum, where Jesus often preached, as well as the location of the Sermon on the Mount and the Church of Peter's Primacy. In the afternoon, we spent some time bird-watching in the Hula Valley, north of the Sea of Galilee. It's said that from this area the largest number of migratory birds in the world can be observed -- a good place for considering the idea of harmony between man and Nature.
	Week 2	#838	"2002 Spring Holy Land Tour #3: Up on Mt. Nebo" On this fourth day of the tour, we crossed the border near the Sea of Galilee and entered the country of Jordan. Standing on the top of Mt. Nebo (Pisgah), where Moses viewed the Promised Land just before he died, we, as well, took in the magnificent view of the land God promised to His people. We then traveled to the town of Madaba and took a look at a sixth-century mosaic map of the land of Palestine that makes up part of the floor of an ancient church.
	Week 3	#839	"The Gospel According to Luke, Part 14" This is the fourteenth of a multi-part study series on the Gospel of Luke, using video from the "JESUS" movie produced by Campus Crusade For Christ. In this program, we look at scenes from chapters 20 and 22: "Render Unto Caesar," "The Last Supper," and "Prophecy of the Disciples' Failure."
	Week 4	#840	"Aiming For a Better World" -- *Kazushito Takase* Today's guest is Kazushito Takase, a representative of World Vision, Japan. Their headquarters agency, World Vision International, is an non-governmental organization (NGO) founded upon the tenets of Christian charity. Takase himself has visited over 70 countries and has participated in various assistance projects. He adds that since he has become a father, his perspective on conditions in developing countries has changed. Having just returned from a trip to Angola, we talk with him today about all this and more.

	Week 1	#841	"A Modern-day Martin Luther King Jr." -- *Ryūichi Doi* As both a Japanese Diet member and a pastor, Ryūichi Doi was recently invited to the United States to serve as the International Honorary Grand Marshall at a event in honor of slain civil rights leader, Martin Luther King Jr. Doi is the first Japanese person to be so recognized for his contributions to the issues of peace and civil rights. In this program, we show you some footage of the parade in the U.S. and an award ceremony for him held in Japan. Rep. Doi also shares with us about his journey in life up to this point.
	Week 2	#842	"2002 Spring Holy Land Tour #4: Petra, Aqaba, and the Dead Sea" On this fourth day of the tour, we crossed into Jordan and stayed in the city of Petra. To view the ancient ruins, however, we had to travel by horseback. The ruins themselves were featured in the movie, "Indiana Jones: the Last Crusade." The imposing structures, gouged out of sheer rock, truly overwhelms a visitor's visual senses. What does ancient Petra have to say to people today?
	Week 3	#843	"2002 Spring Holy Land Tour #5: Masada, Ein Gedi, and Qumran" On this fifth day of the tour, we moved north from the vicinity of the Dead Sea and headed for Jerusalem. Our first stop was Masada, scene of a fierce stand-off between the Roman army and a group of 900 Jewish rebels in the first century. In a show of nationalistic spirit, the entire group committed suicide just before the Romans broke through to them. Our Messianic Jewish guide, Sarah, talks with us about Jewish history and about her own faith in Jesus.
	Week 4	#844	"The Gospel According to Luke, Part 15" This is the fifteenth of a multi-part study series on the Gospel of Luke, using video from the "JESUS" movie produced by Campus Crusade For Christ. In this program, we look at scenes from chapters 22: "Prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane," "The Arrest of Jesus," and "Peter's Denial of Jesus."
	Week 5	#845	"A Colored-ink Artist Paints the Holy Land" -- *Katsuyuki Fujii* While working as a fine arts instructor, Fujii began to win awards for his artwork and secured a reputation for excellence. Then in 1997, he resigned his academic position and devoted himself full-time to creative work. To him, it was a dream come true, but for his family, it was the beginning of a new struggle. How did he made it through? And what was it that got him painting scenery from Israel? We welcome him to our studio for a conversation. A set of "Bible Journey" Postcards featuring some of Fujii's paintings of Israel are available for purchase from Harvest Time (set of 6 cards for 600 yen). (Re-broadcast.)

	Week 1	#846	"2002 Spring Holy Land Tour #6: the Mt. of Olives and Gallicantu Church" Finally, with two days of our stay in Israel left, we focus on Jerusalem. After taking in a view of the old section of the city from atop Mt. Scopus, we visit a souvenir shop run by an Arab Christian. Here, we listen to a fascinating explanation of the events that took place during the Last Supper. We also visit the St. Peter in Gallicantu Church, the place that commemorates Peter's triple denial of Jesus.
	Week 2	#847	"2002 Spring Holy Land Tour #7: the Holocaust Museum" On the afternoon of the same day, we think about the road that the Jewish people have traveled thus far. First, we go through the Holocaust Museum (Yad Vashem) and listen to a talk given by our Israeli guide, Sarah, whose own grandmother is a Holocaust survivor. In the evening, the entire group accepts the invitation of Yossi, our bus driver, and pays a visit to his home. As we shared fellowship with this one Israeli family, it became a special time that the tour members will not soon forget.
	Week 3	#848	"The Gospel According to Luke, Part 16" This is the sixteenth of a multi-part study series on the Gospel of Luke, using video from the "JESUS" movie produced by Campus Crusade For Christ. In this program, we look at scenes from chapters 22 and 23: "Before the Council of the Elders," "From Pilate to Herod," and "Sentencing Before Pilate."
	Week 4	#849	"The Master Key That Unlocks the Door to Life" -- *Toshio Katsuma* Today's guest is the creator of "Master Key," a new manga comic book, second in the eComix series following last year's publication of "The Fool." After making his debut as a pro manga artist at the age of 18, one set of complications after another developed in Katsuma's life. He worked as a bartender for awhile, but, in an amazing set of circumstances, the road leading back to manga art opened up for him again. We talk with him about his journey this far. Contact Harvest Time to purchase a 10-book set of "Master Key" for 1,000 yen, plus 300 yen shipping and handling.

	Week 1	#850	"2002 Spring Holy Land Tour #8: Jerusalem's Old City & the Garden Tomb" This is the final program in the series. On this day, we visit Jerusalem's Old City and spend some time at the southern and western walls of the Temple Mount. Here, we get a glimpse of the Jerusalem of Jesus' day and think about the Jewish roots of our faith. To wrap up the tour, we visit the "Garden Tomb," a tourist facility that commemorates Jesus' burial site, and reflect upon His death and resurrection.
	Week 2	#851	"J-Leaguer: the Goal of Life" -- *Masanobu Matsunami* Today's guest is currently an active player with the Ganba Osaka professional soccer club. Since high school, Matsunami had set his sights on professional soccer and, in fact, achieved brilliant performance his debut year. However, injuries and other mishaps began to take their toll on him. Just at that time, though, he met Keiko, the girl he was to marry and began to learn about a whole new view of the world. In this program, we ask him about this change that, he says, now sustains him in all of life.
	Week 3	#852	"The Story of Mikuni Restaurant" -- *Kōki & Komichi Arai* In this program, we visit a very successful and unique sushi restaurant in Sacramento, California. The restaurant features over 100 different kinds of sushi creations and the vast majority of customers are Americans. We talk with owner Kōki Arai and his wife (who are also pastoring a church) and ask them why they decided to go into the restaurant business and what their secret for business success is.
	Week 4	#853	"The Gospel According to Luke, Part 17" This is the seventeenth of a 19-part study series on the Gospel of Luke, using video from the "JESUS" movie produced by Campus Crusade For Christ. In this program, we look at scenes from chapter 23: "Jesus Bearing the Cross," "Prayer From the Cross," and "The Three Crosses."
	Week 5	#854	"The Father's Tears" -- *Makoto & Yumiko Iwabuchi* Singer-songwriter Makoto Iwabuchi and his wife are the featured guests on this program, taped live at one of Harvest Time's recent monthly "Getsureikai" meetings.
