About Excavating the Evidence for Jesus
Archaeologist and author, Dr. Titus Kennedy, explores the scripture, history, archaeology, and evidence for the ancient world surrounding the birth of Jesus Christ. The home base for the series is Dr. Kennedy’s research lair, a secret basement where he stores maps, slides, tools, and artifacts from his various excavations and adventures. In addition to teaching with a collection of old school resources, Titus treks outside his lair for special visits to Israel’s archaeology sites and museums. Designed for all ages, Excavating the Evidence for Jesus is fun and educational, encouraging families to dig deeper into the Gospel accounts together.
