James and his team are there to walk in the footsteps of Jesus and participate in several worship events, including the Day of Prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem. Thousands of Christians from around the world gathered with Jewish and Christian leaders at the Haas Promenade overlooking the Old City of Jerusalem.

James led the worship with Misty Edwards as thousands sang, danced, and celebrated the God of the Bible.

The team did outreach around the country and occasionally broke out into spontaneous worship at holy sites. One video of James and his team singing "Holy Spirit" in the place believed to be the upper room where Pentacost took place went viral. It hit well over 1 million views on Facebook.

"Although we had a bit of opposition it was so CRAZY AWESOME!!" James said in an Instagram post.
