Archaeology is not quite like Indiana Jones. It’s actually better! Many times archaeology clarifies the text of the Bible and helps us investigate the stories in our ancient and texts. Archaeology also emboldens our faith, because unlike other faith traditions, ours is firmly rooted in history, and is therefore subject to investigation.

Matt got to have a great conversation with Ted Wright, the executive director of Epic Archaeology. Ted has a B.A. in Anthropology and Archaeology. He’s at the top of his field, and loves Jesus. During this Christmas season, join us as we investigate our historical faith.

HISTORY AFFIRMS A KEY EVENT IN THE CHRISTMAS STORY

Luke’s Gospel is a great wealth of historical information. In his opening words, he states:

Inasmuch as many have taken in hand to set in order a narrative of those things which have been fulfilled among us… it seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write to you an orderly account, most excellent Theophilus, that you might know the certainty of those things in which you were instructed. (Luke 1:1;3-4)

Luke’s concern is ORDER and ACCURACY so that the recipient of the document (Theophilus), “might know the certainty of those things in which he was instructed (v. 3).”

Not only is Luke’s account orderly, it is an accurate record of what truly happened two thousand years ago.
