Caesarea Philippi
Okay, so imagine you and your friends are on a walk and you come across a really cool place with a big rock and some streams of water. That place is called Caesarea Philippi and it's in a country called Israel.
A long, long time ago, Caesarea Philippi was a very important place where people would go to worship many different gods. It was so important that even some important people, like kings, would go there to show how powerful they were.
One day, a famous guy named Jesus went to Caesarea Philippi with his friends. He asked them who they thought he was and one of his friends said that he thought Jesus was the Messiah, which means the chosen one sent by God. Jesus was really happy about this and said that he would build his church and that nothing could stop it.
Even though Caesarea Philippi was a place for worshiping many different gods, it became an important place for Christians too because of what happened with Jesus and his friends. People still go there today to see the big rock and streams of water and to learn about the history of the place.
