Nabil Costa is the General Secretary of the Association of Evangelical Schools in Lebanon – a ministry that encompasses around 30 schools (25,000 students, 65% Muslim) in Lebanon. Recently, Nabil has been particularly burdened with the need to be more intentional in raising awareness on the situation of students with special needs.
On the regional and global level, Nabil is on the Executive Committee of the European Baptist Federation (EBF) and has recently been appointed as the Vice President Elect for the Baptist World Alliance (BWA).
He spends a considerable portion of his time travelling extensively between the Middle East, Europe and North America. He has had many trainings in USA and Europe. He is occasionally invited to speak on such topics as leadership, team work, motivation, marketing and fund-raising…
Nabil is married to Lena who is involved in prison and music ministries. They have two sons – Nicholas (13 years) and Christopher (7 years).
In the Galilee seaside village of Kibbutz Ginosar, an historic archaeological discovery was made on January 24th, 1986. The discovery rocked the worlds of faith, history and archaeology.
Many say miracles occurred during the both the discovery and recovery. Leaving us with The haunting question; was this The Jesus Boat?
An extremely rare “moonbow” (a lunar rainbow, created by light reflecting off the moon’s surface) appeared to Dr. Cohen during the rescue. The long drought-parched Galilee region was deluged with rain almost immediately upon the boat’s discovery. During the rescue, major “political,” personal and scientific conflicts were quickly settled; the seemingly impossible race against the clock was won; the shortages of money, manpower, and workable rescue solutions were solved; and never before seen cooperation and assistance was rendered continuously from kibbutz members, workers, sponsors, and government agencies.
And then we have this key fact: If this boat had been discovered even thirty years earlier than 1986, the basic scientific knowledge necessary to rescue and permanently preserve this boat would not have existed. Despite these odds, the fact that this 2,000 year-old boat is on exhibit today must be seen as a miracle?
Alon Kossonogi
One of three sons born to Doron and Gonny, Alon was named after his grandfather, Yigal Allon, who with David Ben-Gurion and others was one of the co-founders of the State of Israel. Alon envisions bringing the “Jesus Boat” story to the world through books, films, television specials and a traveling exhibit. Alon hopes people everywhere will come to know the relevance of the Jesus Boat.
