Roman Arch outside of Tarsus - Rod Varner
My husband Rod and I have lived in Turkey for the past five years with our four boys, Roderick, Harrison, Stephen, and Thomas. We have traveled extensively in this beautiful country writing about historical Christian sites here. An amazing two thirdsof the New Testament was written either to or from Turkey so it is rich in Biblical history. Turkey has always been a crossroads of the world and the historical ruins here is truly remarkable. I love writing about this great country and the cultures that have thrived here.
