Where can you go that’s more than just fun, but also transformational?

Where can you go that’s family friendly and/or upholds Christian values?

That’s the question Shelly and I asked ourselves—and in this week’s Huey Alert Podcast, we share 6 of the most meaningful, surprising, and unforgettable places we’ve personally visited… and recommend with all our heart.

These aren’t your average vacation spots. They’re destinations of faith, truth, and cultural impact—perfect for:

  • Families with young kids or teens
  • Grandparents with grandkids
  • Small groups or Bible studies
  • Or anyone who wants to grow deeper in their faith and understanding

Here’s a taste of what we cover on the podcast:

  • ️ The Ark Encounter — the full-size Noah’s Ark replica that left us speechless. You’ll see Bible accuracy in jaw-dropping scale—and walk through multiple floors filled with insight, education, and wonder.
  • The Creation Museum — A deep dive into Biblical creation, science, and apologetics. Great for kids. Eye-opening for adults.
  • The International Museum of Communism — It’s not on the mall in D.C., but it’s one of the most powerful, hidden museums you’ve never heard of.
  • The Museum of the Bible — From the Dead Sea Scrolls to Bible translations to Christian theater and concerts, this is a spiritual journey like no other.
  • The Cloisters (NYC) — A museum of ancient Christian art and artifacts tucked away in New York City. Stunning. Sobering. Inspiring.
  • Dollywood — Yes, Dollywood! From roller coasters to gospel music and gospel truth, it’s unlike any theme park in America.

We also give you tips on:

  • Where to stay
  • What to skip
  • How to make it affordable
  • And why each place can plant eternal seeds in your family
