At a time when many Christians believe science is turning away from their faith, this six part documentary series takes the science to lands as various as Israel and Iraq to look for archeological evidence of locations with biblical connotations such as Nineveh, the "City of Sin", and the "Tower of Babel".
It also covers the stories of the catastrophic flood and the Ark, and the departure of the Israelites from Egypt ("Exodus"), as well as looking into the characters such as King Solomon and King Herod and the tales associated with them. New archaeological discoveries and 3D CGI are used to tell us more about biblical times.
