Description

For the first time in history, archaeologists are excavating the ancient city of Colossae, the very place Paul addressed his letter to the Colossians and to Philemon. Dr. Arnold explains the significance of Colossae in the New Testament world, the challenges of getting an excavation approved in modern Türkiye, and what discoveries could reveal about the spiritual and cultural background behind Paul’s warnings to the Colossian church. From mosaics hidden under farmland to ground-penetrating radar scans that point to buried temples, this is a fascinating look at how history, archaeology, and Scripture intersect.
