Ep. 130: Amanda Hope Haley on faith, scripture, and archaeology.
Have you ever questioned a belief that you've held for a long time?
In this episode of MercyCast, I sit down with Amanda Hope Haley—Harvard-trained archaeologist and author of Stones Still Speak—to talk about something that has the potential to challenge our faith: the way we understand scripture. Together, we explore the importance of context in interpreting the Bible and the often-overlooked role of biblical archaeology in revealing the world behind the words.
