Another Vespers Concert added!

Due to the enthusiastic response to our “Vespers in the Stone Chapel” concert scheduled for May 29, we have added a second concert on the following evening, Wednesday, May 30. The program and material will be exactly the same.

Description: This program will be a traditional evening service of hymns, psalms, prayers, and anthems whose roots extend back to the chant-based liturgy in use at the time the original chapel was built. Hear this glorious choral music performed by area singers in the type of space for which it was written!

This event is free and open to the public. Due to limited seating, you must register online in order to attend.

5/29 - Sorry, registration is closed for this event. 

5/30 - Sorry, registration is closed for this event. 

NEW VIDEO! Lecture with Sy Gitin now available

You can now watch our March lecture with Sy Gitin entitled “Ekron of the Philistines: From Sea Peoples to Olive Oil Industrialists.”

Gitin, archaeologist and Director at the Albright Institute, discusses how the excavations at Ekron challenge the traditional perception of the Philistines. The lecture is followed with responses from Tim Harrison, archaeologist and President of ASOR; Steve Ortiz, archaeologist and professor at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary; and Mark Lanier, Biblical teacher and owner of the library. You can watch this lecture free online or purchase a DVD.
