Dear Friend of ABR,
As 2025 comes to a close, we take this opportunity to thank you for standing with us in our mission to demonstrate the historical reliability of the Scriptures through archaeological and biblical research. Your support helped us to continue preaching the gospel and affirming the authority of God’s Word through our presentations, Bible & Spade magazine, and the Digging for Truth TV show and podcast.
This year we completed our seventh season of excavations at biblical Shiloh, a site that continues to yield extraordinary evidence affirming the biblical narrative. Our team uncovered additional signs of a thriving Israelite presence during the period from Joshua through Samuel, along with materials and installations consistent with the Jewish sacrificial system described in Scripture.
Our staff spoke at various churches and conferences, including the Biblically Grounded Archaeology Experience in Bristol, VA, the Biblical Worldview Conference in Dallas, TX, and the Ready Answers Apologetics Conference in Sault Ste. Marie, ON, Canada. The feedback we received was tremendous.
The opportunities before us in the coming year are extraordinary. We plan to return to excavate at Shiloh, again in May/June 2026. New strategic initiatives will expand our impact through social media and several of our staff plan to publish books. We anticipate the publication of our excavation report from Khirbet el-Maqatir in 2026.(Vol. 1 –Bronze and Iron Age). Additionally, we plan to reach the younger generation with the Bible and Spade magazine in the coming year. ABR is poised to make its greatest impact yet, and we appreciate your partnership and anticipated support as we forge ahead into 2026.
With deep appreciation, the Board of Directors joins us in wishing you a very Merry Christmas and God’s immense blessings in 2026.
Together in serving our Lord and Savior.
