The BC Messenger

By: Steve and Jennifer Hall
  • Summary

  • Real science, real Bible, real history, real world. Enlightening discussions that will change the way you think about the ancient Old Testament.

    The biblical accounts are not myth or legend; in fact they are more real than you ever imagined. Each month brings you Bible/science research results you won't hear anywhere else, and why it matters for you today.

    Your hosts, Steve and Jennifer Hall, present a collage of topics from the research work of Dr. Gerald Aardsma (The Biblical Chronologist), providing a desperately needed data-rich apologetic for the foundations of the Christian faith.

  • September 2024: Discoveries That Seemed Delusional
    Sep 3 2024

    A well-dressed lady, probably in her late 60s, picked up a copy of Dr. Aardsma's book Aging: Cause and Cure at a display table. She surveyed the covers, and then set the book down saying, "That's just too much."

    Talking about aging as a curable disease does sound crazy today. Crazier still is the idea that the cure for aging is now known, and topping it all off, that the cure has been found through data contained in the ancient book of Genesis.

    Looking back through time, we can see that although many world-changing ideas and discoveries initially sounded too crazy to be true, those ideas eventually became accepted as fact, and those discoveries are now embraced by society.

    This month we take a look at four historical examples of ideas that at first seemed too crazy to be true... but ended up changing the world.

  • August 2024: Understanding the Pillar of Cloud
    Aug 1 2024

    God led the Israelites through the wilderness by a pillar of cloud by day. It signaled to them when they should remain camped in a certain location, or when it was time to move to another location. To the unbeliever, this again sounds like the substance of mythology. But, when explained scientifically, it shows (once again) that the accounts in Exodus are eyewitness accounts of God's amazing, traceable works in history.

    On this episode, you will come to understand the cloud in the wilderness in a way that you have never understood it before, as Steve and Jennifer discuss another fascinating discovery from Dr. Gerald Aardsma on the biblical account of the Exodus!

  • July 2024: Where the Bitter Water Became Sweet, The Location of Marah
    Jul 1 2024

    After leaving Egypt, the Israelites journeyed along the north Sinai road. After three encampments, they struck out into the wilderness under Moses' direction. They found no water after a journey of three days, but then came to a place called Marah, where there was water.

    However, the water at Marah was bitter and they could not drink it. The Bible records that Moses then threw a tree in the water and the water became drinkable (sweet). Where did this happen? How could bitter water become sweet?

    On this episode Steve and Jennifer discuss continuing research and discoveries from Dr. Gerald Aardsma on the route of the Exodus, and bring a real-world answer that you have never heard before to the mystery of this familiar story! Knowing the right date leads us to the correct location of Marah... which then, once again, leads to a deeper understanding of the biblical account.
