- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 15 Mar, 2026 at 12:30 pm
- **Event Description**: This 90–120 minute presentation explores how archaeology in Israel serves as a bridge between history, faith, and modern community life. Drawing from firsthand experience at the Shiloh excavations, the program addresses the question “Why do we dig?”—examining not only the archaeological process itself, but how uncovering the past helps strengthen identity, preserve memory, and foster meaningful community dialogue today.

The presentation is designed to be informative and accessible, with time built in for questions, discussion, and reflection.
