Description
Defending scripture and a biblical world view through archaeology, philosophy, and science. It is the intention of this page to provide a platform for all devout Christians to examine and defend the claims of scripture regardless of denomination, in order to arrive at a clear understanding of truth. This site will provide the latest in archaeological and theological hypotheses for the reliability of the biblical narrative and common questions associated with the claims they are in. However as a disclaimer, we encourage every viewer to diligently research everything that is provided so that they can come to their own conclusion in their quest for veritas [truth]. We do not claim to possess answers that will be satisfying to every inquirer, but we do hope that or explanations will be intriguing and will spur you on in your own study of the word. God speed, and many thanks, John -- Founder of Book & Spade
