In this series, however, they will be looking at the serious, scholarly discoveries that have provided legitimization to the Biblical record. The Bible is actual history, not myth, and more and more discoveries have been made to provide indicators to that point. I have provided links to the introductory post, and the #10 in the top ten countdown.
My hope and prayer is that you would find a connection with God through the study of history. I have had some of my most profound "God moments" as I look through the historical record and see that the hand of God working throughout our story. I find it incredibly refreshing to connect with that larger historical stream of the people of God. Sometimes, we as 21st century thinkers can be exceptionally myopic.
