Amanda shares her work as a biblical archaeologist, explaining how archaeology helps confirm historical details of Scripture, sheds light on the ancient world of the Bible, and challenges modern misconceptions about Christianity. From archaeological digs to biblical manuscripts, Jeff and Amanda explore how physical evidence and faith intersect in a skeptical culture.

How archaeology supports the historical reliability of the Bible
Common myths about Scripture and ancient history
Why understanding biblical context matters for modern Christians
