archeology and the bible

Thank you for the opportunity to present to you a lecture series and discussions on Archeology and the Bible. Many have accepted the bible as inspired writings from God, the Creator, but are there evidences that exist to support the bible as accurate historical writings? There have been many historical documents found and translated that speak of a people, their traditions, their beliefs and will describe wars, cities and artifacts that are unique to that people. Does the same hold true for the bible?

Come share with us a great opportunity to explore, learn and discuss. We will have four uniquely qualified individuals that have specific and selected topics in this area. These four men will present on people, cities, nations and the evidence left behind for our careful review.

The first Sunday in October, 5 October 2008, we will have David Duncan of Orlando, FL. David is a scientist and engineer and works on state of the art technological devices. His background as a critical thinker lead him to study carefully the hype versus evidence with regard to claims made by many concerning the bible. He will speak specifically on:

(1) the beginning: Eden

(2) Flood

(3) How old is the earth? - really

The second Sunday in October, 12 October 2008, we will have Jeff Himmel of Perry, FL. Jeff has spent a number of years studying the bible and is no doubt a believer of the message. The unique attribute of Jeff is his desire to connect the message to the historical proofs that exist in history and archeology. He will speak specifically on:

(1) the role of archaeology in Bible study

(2) archaeology and the New Testament

The third Sunday in October, 19 October 2008, we will have Rand Styles of Orlando, FL. Rand lived several years in Egypt and has witnessed first hand many of the relevant artifacts that have been foundational to exploring ancient Egypt, their culture and their history. His first hand experience has led him to understand how important archeology is for supporting claims thousands of years removed. He will speak specifically on:

(1) Ancient Egypt

The fourth Sunday in October, 26 October 2008, we will have Gene Taylor of Tallahassee, FL. Gene is well versed in ancient empires and specifically those that have been recorded in the bible. His will show the archeological evidence which reveals cities and empires that once ruled but later lay in ruins. He will speak specifically on:

(1) Assyrian Empire

(2) Babylonian Empire
