Dr. Richard Freund |
Dr. Freund will be showing a segment from his new documentary from National Geographic, "Lost Faces of the Bible," a CSI style forensic archaeology approach to biblical figures and information. The segment featured at the "Super Bowl" is on the topic of child sacrifice in the Bible and the ancient near east. He calls it "a fascinating tale of intrigue and good science."
Included in the afternoon's festivities will be give-aways (lots of archaeological "stuff"), archaeology and Bible quizzes and Q&As, book signing, and a short intro to Dr. Freund's new book "Digging through History: Religion and Archaeology from Atlantis to the Holocaust" (Rowman and Littlefield, 2012).
The festivities are free and open to the public but seating is limited. To book your seat, contact Susan Gottlieb at 860-768-4964. Please call soon so you have a seat!
This event is not sponsored by the Catholic Biblical School but is an authorized make-up for certain requirements towards archdiocesan and seminary certificates in biblical studies. Only contact BJ about this program if you wish to request it as a make-up for your missed requirements.
