Most Bible students know the account well. A prosperous city. Repeated warnings. A hurried escape. A backward glance that proved fatal.
In early 2026, this upcoming tour invites you to revisit that account—not to retell it, but to examine it more closely. The goal is not to sensationalize the destruction, but to consider why Jehovah preserved this record and why later Bible writers—and Jesus himself—continued to point back to it.
The presentation begins where Scripture itself places emphasis: a society that appeared stable, prosperous, and secure. Archaeological findings from the region near the Dead Sea help illustrate just how fertile and active this valley once was. Excavations reveal thick ash layers, collapsed structures, and evidence of sudden abandonment—details that quietly harmonize with the Bible’s description of a swift, overwhelming judgment.
Special attention is given to the human dimension of the account. Lot’s hesitation. The disbelief of his sons-in-law. And the brief but haunting reference to Lot’s wife. Her backward glance was not simply a moment of curiosity—it revealed where her heart still was. That single verse continues to provoke serious reflection for anyone striving to remain spiritually alert in a world that often feels familiar, comfortable, and safe.
The tour also highlights Jehovah’s patience and clarity. Warnings were given. Time was allowed. A way of escape was provided. These elements echo through later prophetic warnings and Jesus’ own words about "the days of Lot," making the account more than historical—it becomes deeply instructive.
This experience is designed for those who already know the story, but want to understand its weight. Through visuals, careful pacing, and thoughtful commentary, it encourages Bible students to consider not just what happened—but how easily the same attitudes and choices could be repeated in principle.
