King Darius I of the Achaemenid Empire was a well known ruler in history and is mentioned a number of times in the Book of Ezra, and reigned during the time when the Jewish temple was being rebuilt. Bryan Windle gives an archaeological biography of his life and shares how he connects the Bible to history.

Dr. Jeremiah Johnston of the ‪@ChristianThinkersSociety‬ will guide us as we explore the archaeological and historical evidence for the location of Jesus’ tomb and subsequent resurrection. Several candidates have emerged over the centuries, the Garden Tomb (or Gordon's Tomb) and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, so Dr. Johnston will walk us through the evidence and point us to the most likely candidate.

Dr. Jonathan Moore, a doctor of podiatric medicine who also has a PhD in biblical studies, joins Henry to discuss research that he has been conducting into crucifixion in the ancient world. Dr. Moore, along with Dr. Scott Stripling, have analyzed the remains of 5 crucified victims and have developed some interesting insights on how people were crucified, in particular how their feet were positioned on the cross and where the nail penetrated the foot.

Dr. Jeremiah Johnston, President of the ChristianThinkersSociety, joins Henry to talk about why we can trust the resurrection of Jesus Christ was a historical event.

Dr. Scott Stripling joins to talk about favissas - What are they? And what is found in them from archaeological digs? Dr. Stripling will also talk about the Israelite sacrificial system, and what it looked like at Shiloh, where the tabernacle was for over 300 years, and what has been found in the favissa at Shiloh in recent years.

Bryan Windle joins Henry to count down the top ten biblical archeology discoveries related to the book of Jeremiah.

Dr. Craig Evans joins us as we explore the Infancy Gospels of Jesus. When did these stories about Jesus’ youth originate, what is contained in them, what languages were they translated into, why are they not included in the NT, and what should Christians think about them today? Dr. Evans will break it all down for us on this latest episode of Digging for Truth.

On this two part episode of Digging for Truth, theologian and medical doctor Hans Madueme joins us as we survey his book “Defending Sin” where he extensively responds to the challenges to evolution. Dr. Madume will help us understand the doctrine of creation, the fall, and events such as the flood and the tower of babel as essential for our understanding of world history and the theology of the Bible. Preserving the doctrine of original goodness in both creation and Adam and Eve are essential foundations for theology and history, and are most coherently and faithfully understood in a young earth framework of human and cosmic history.
