This week on the Patterns of Evidence Podcast, Filmmaker, Tim Mahoney, Writer/Researcher for Patterns of Evidence, Steve Law, and Thinker Update Author, Lora Gilb, discuss the intriguing origin of our Patterns of Evidence Thinker Blog.

What brought about these weekly articles and why do we feel it’s important to keep you up to date on the latest discoveries in biblical archaeology? What artifact discovered in Israel started the blog and how are archaeological digs in the Middle East continually affirming our faith?

Now more than ever it is so critical to share Bible affirming evidence with others, especially the younger generation who are hearing the opposite from the culture and the classroom. Hear testimonies from Tim, Steve, and Lora about people that have been encouraged by the evidence we’re striving to present in our films. Also hear personal stories from their own lives and the lives of their family members. 

Our faith is rooted in history and there is a pattern of evidence matching the Bible! This information has the power to transform lives and equip young students, especially as they go off to college. We hope you enjoy this episode!

This week on the Patterns of Evidence Podcast, Filmmaker, Tim Mahoney, and Writer/Researcher for Patterns of Evidence, Steve Law, share special Mount Sinai related excerpts from interviews conducted with Dr. Deborah Hurn and Sir Colin Humphreys.

What caused these two scholars to look beyond the Sinai Peninsula, into other areas of the Middle East for Mount Sinai? What evidence do they have to support the conclusions they've drawn and how well does that evidence fit the biblical text and criteria?

Both Dr. Hurn and Sir Humphreys will be featured in “Journey to Mount Sinai II,” with Deborah advocating for Har Karkom in the S Negev of Israel and Colin advocating for Hala-‘l Bedr in NW Saudi Arabia.

How strong of a case does Dr. Deborah Hurn make in identifying what she believes to be Exodus campsites on the way to Har Karkom based on wilderness watersheds?

How do Midian, the Hebrew definition behind “backside of the wilderness,” records of ancient travel speeds, and the Wilderness of Shur play a role in Sir Colin Humphreys looking to Saudi Arabia for the mountain?

Learn these things and more in this week’s episode!

This week on the Patterns of Evidence Podcast, Filmmaker, Tim Mahoney, and Research Professor of Old Testament at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, Dr. Jason DeRouchie, discuss the historical and miraculous nature of the events at Mount Sinai.

Tim and Dr. DeRouchie relay the critical importance of Mount Sinai being a real, identifiable location and why it matters that these events actually took place. What dangers exist in people saying, “Where it happened doesn’t matter - only what happened there matters”?

Dr. DeRouchie shares his thoughts on the fire of God. Should we be looking for a mountain that shows signs of intensive burning - or - is this not necessarily a "must have" criteria due to the nature of this fire as described throughout Exodus and other passages of Scripture?

Was Mount Sinai a volcano? Are there naturalistic explanations for the thunder, lightning, and smoke atop the mountain? Tim and Dr. DeRouchie take a deep look at this, as Dr. DeRouchie emphasizes the miraculous nature of the cloud and fire of God, pointing out how it moved and led the Israelites throughout the wilderness, as well as rested on the Tabernacle, the Ark of the Covenant, and later in the Temple - all beginning with the burning bush.

The two close on the question of whether or not Mount Sinai was considered a holy mountain prior to the burning bush and God's covenant with the Israelites. Does Exodus 3:1 prove it was a holy site possibly for centuries before the Exodus - or - is there another explanation?

This week on the Patterns of Evidence Podcast, Filmmaker, Tim Mahoney, and Writer/Researcher for Patterns of Evidence, Steve Law, continue their behind-the-scenes conversation on “Journey to Mount Sinai II.”

What is the “Patterns Approach” and how has this method led to uncovering profound evidence, affirming the historical credibility of the Bible, in time periods and locations many are not looking in? In what ways has this approach been utilized in the development of the “Journey to Mount Sinai” series? What are some of the attributes of Mount Sinai we should be looking for in determining which candidate best fits the biblical criteria?

Gain special insights on the 2 BONUS criteria of our Journey to Mount Sinai Scorecard. What do “Kadesh Barnea” and “Beyond Yam Suph” mean for the true location of Mount Sinai?

Tim and Steve also discuss the sad yet powerful influence paganism had on the ancient Israelites as it relates to the golden calf incident and later in their history. What predominant themes in the ancient world could lead them to stray so quickly after witnessing the signs, wonders, and miraculous outstretched arm of God?

In our 9th episode of the Patterns of Evidence podcast, continuing our focus on the Red Sea Miracle, we explore the different bodies of water proposed for shallow-water sea crossings near Egypt. These sites are commonly known as the border lakes.

Did all of these lakes that have been proposed as crossing sites even exist at the time of the Exodus? How large and deep were they, and were they capable of drowning the entire Egyptian army? Hear various points debated by the different scholars involved in this exciting research.

Scholars and researchers featured in this episode include (in order) Tim Mahoney, Dr. Barry Beitzel, Dr. Glen Fritz, Dr. Carl Drews, Egyptologist David Rohl, Professor Stephen Moshier, Professor James Hoffmeier, Dr. Deborah Hurn, Dr. Gregor Hodgson, and Dr. Manfred Bietak

For our 8th episode of the Patterns of Evidence podcast, we are continuing the topic of the Red Sea Miracle. Drawing, again, from bonus content found in the Collector’s Edition of Patterns of Evidence: The Red Sea Miracle, we will investigate the number of Israelites that left Egypt during the Exodus.

Does the biblical information favor total numbers of 20 thousand Israelites or 2 million? This question is a complicated piece of the Exodus journey. Go deeper into the arguments for the two main views that debate the true size of Israel’s population.

Scholars and researchers featured in this interview include (in order of introduction) Rabbi Manis Friedman, Tim Mahoney, Professor Douglas Knight, Professor Alan Millard, Dr. Fred Baltz, Dr. Bryant Wood, Dr. Barry Beitzel, Dr. Jason DeRouchie, Dr. Deborah Hurn, and Jodell Onstott.
