Navigating History: Egypt

From the website of Western Conservatory's Navigating History: Egypt Project:

Western Conservatory is pleased to announce the Navigating HistoryProject, a video series designed to teach history, geography, and current affairs to a young Christian audience. In order to maximize the teaching power of the series, the video episodes will be streamed live as they are produced to viewers who will have the ability to interact with the filmmakers as they travel to remote locations around the world. This “hands on” approach to the subject matter will provide viewers with as much of the unfiltered perspective of global travel as possible from the comfort of their own homes.

This first season of Navigating History will begin broadcasting from Egypt on the 1st of December, 2010. Egypt is an ideal location for the first season, since it has such a rich history and pivotal position in Middle Eastern politics. The wide array of topics that Egypt presents and the stunning visual backdrop that it provides makes it a perfect starting point, and it is likely that no other destination best encapsulates the vision for the project as a whole. More about the Egypt expedition.

Join the Navigating History team to explore the monuments, travel the countryside, and search for the answers to questions like these:

How could a primitive society build massive pyramids? Don't the long ages of Egyptian archaeology prove the Bible is not strictly reliable? What happened to a church that traces it lineage all the way back to St. Mark? Is Islam really a cradle of civilization? Why do some societies develop new technologies, while others stagnate?

Navigating History: Egypt is a 6-episode adventure history series designed to give you the tools you need to understand Egypt from a Biblical worldview. Episodes will be streamed live every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from Egypt, starting December 1, through December 17. Each will be followed by live Q&A.

Isaac Botkin invites you to join the adventure.
