Explore Biblical Artifacts at the British Museum
Is the Bible not as clear as you would like it to be?
In this semi-private guided tour, you'll go through the British Museum, connecting numerous ancient artifacts to verses, helping you to discover the common thread that weaves the books and people together.
Verses are no longer just words on a page when you see an ancient artifact bring the passage to life. By placing each event on a timeline, you'll understand how they relate to one another.
You'll remember the artifacts and verses in two ways:
1. Read the Bible for yourself: Instead of hearing the guide's interpretation, you'll read the verses in your own translation in front of the artifact. You'll remember the artifact and the verse better.
2. Socratic questioning: Instead of listening to a guide's one-way talk, you'll be asked 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.
