London Bible Tours takes you through the British Museum, connecting numerous artifacts to Bible verses, helping you to discover the common thread that weaves the books and people together.
- Certain sections of the Bible are "black boxes"
- How do Abraham, Moses and David fit into the Biblical timeline?
- You Bible study suffers
- You find it hard to explain the Bible to others
- How did the empires of the time affect Israel?
- Is the Bible even historically reliable?
- You have nagging doubts about the Bible’s reliability
During the tour, you'll remember the connections in two distinct ways:
1. Read the Bible for yourself
Instead of hearing the tour guide’s interpretation of the passages, you’ll read the verses in your own preferred translation, at your speed. By reading the verse in front of the artifact, you’ll remember the artifact and the verse better.
2. Socratic questioning
Instead of listening to a tour guide’s one-way talk, you will be asked a series of gentle questions that prompt you to the answer. Self-discovery is the best way to learn, and by saying the answer in front of the artifact, you’ll remember the artifact and the answer better.
