A new class for adults, “The History and Archaeology of the Bible,” is being led by Pete Fleming and is offered twice each week for 24 weeks:
10:00 to 11:30 a.m. on Tuesdays in room F154, located on the 1st floor of the Sheldon Family Life Center;
6:00 to 7:30 p.m. on Wednesdays in room F151, located on the 1st floor of the Sheldon Family Life Center.
Choose the one that best suits your schedule.
The course will include a video each week produced by National Geographic and featuring lecturer Jean-Pierre Ishbouts, a professor in the Social Sciences PhD program of Fielding Graduate University in Santa Barbara, California, and an archaeologist, author, screenwriter, director, and producer of works addressing various historical periods, particularly the time period of Jesus and that of Renaissance and post-Renaissance art. During the course, he will visit many of the places mentioned in the Bible.
Participants will be encouraged, but not required, to purchase the book Who Wrote the Bible by Richard Friedman. It can be purchased online at Thrift Books for under $10.00. Pete will present excerpts from this and other books and articles each week. If you are interested in attending this class, please contact Pete by e-mail at
