For centuries, skeptics have argued that parts of the Bible are legend, exaggeration, or history written long after the fact. But what happens when archaeologists start finding the names, places, civilizations, and events recorded in Scripture--do those same skeptics ever change their minds?
This week, author, filmmaker, and scholar, Dinesh D'Souza, joins Frank to reveal what sparked his fascination with biblical archaeology and inspired his new book, 'The Stones Cry Out'. Together, they trace the archaeological evidence through the biblical timeline, from the world of Abraham and ancient Israel to King David, the New Testament, and discoveries involving people who once existed only on the pages of Scripture. During their conversation, Frank and Dinesh investigate questions like:
-- What first got Dinesh interested in biblical archaeology, and what's so special about Jerusalem?
-- How is modern archaeology corroborating the Bible, and why are both pastors and archaeologists hesitant to talk about it?
-- Has archaeology ever uncovered anything that contradicts the Bible?
-- What are archaeological minimalists, and how did evidence for King David challenge their skeptical theories?
-- How is it even possible to examine the historicity of Abraham and events that happened 4000+ years ago?
-- How do Assyrian and Babylonian sources corroborate Scripture?
-- What's so significant about the "Nomads of Yahweh" inscription, the Merneptah Stele, and the walls of Jericho?
-- What about the Quran and Buddhist scriptures: have those been verified by any archaeological discoveries?
-- Why is finding evidence of seemingly minor biblical characters so important?
-- If the Bible gets history right, how does that impact the way we evaluate its claims about miracles?
In the last segment, Frank and Dinesh turn their attention to
Candace Owens:
-- Is there any evidence for what Candace is saying about the murder of Charlie Kirk?
-- Why is she persisting with such determination?
-- What is a very important question that no one seems to be asking?
