Carl has taken over a thousand people of all ages and backgrounds on exciting adventures through the lands of the Bible

When not teaching or spending time with his family, Carl enjoys traveling internationally and writing. Over the last decade, Carl had become widely known for the inspirational tours he regularly leads to the Middle East. He has taken over a thousand people of all ages and backgrounds on exciting adventures through the lands of the Bible, where his knowledge and background about the ancient world make history, archaeological ruins, and the Bible come to life in a way like nothing else can. Some of the insights from Carl’s tours to Israel can be seen in the six-part television series he wrote and filmed in Israel entitled “Reliving Mark.” The series was released on the Hope Channel in early Spring 2021.

Carl is also the author of a number of other publications. He is the author of “Galatians: A Fiery Response to a Struggling Church,” which accompanied the Adult Bible Study Guide on Paul’s Letter to the Galatians in 2011, of which Carl was also the primary contributor. He also wrote the expanded study notes on Romans, 1 and 2 Corinthians, and Galatians for the NIV edition of the Andrews Study Bible. Carl is also the author of the commentary on Galatians in the Andrews Bible Commentary, as well as the commentary on 1 and 2 Timothy in the Seventh-day Adventist International Bible Commentary, which are scheduled to be released this fall. He is also the associate New Testament editor for the Andrews Bible Commentary, and the New Testament editor for Safeliz Study Bible.
